Village Books in the early evening

<< Back to archives | Sunday, December 17, 2006

Took at 4:38 pm - a little too late for the best glow in the sky. this was about 20 minutes after sunset. Should have done it about 10 minutes after.

Our anchor store in Historic Fairhaven is a book store.  We are very pleased with that.  Here, in a crisp December evening, is Village Books with all its holiday lights on.  To the left is Paper Dreams and to the right down the hill is the Fairhaven Village Inn with Bellingham Bay in the background and the San Juan Islands in the hazy twilight. 

Shopping for gifts at Village Books is helped by the very knowledgeable advice of their staff. They know and love books.  And the selection is huge.  That lighted second floor is all fiction books.  And the basement - yes, they have three floors of books - has all the specialty categories such as travel, sciences, design, business, etc.  They also have a section devoted to books of our Northwest area.  So - looking for a really nice present then we invite you down to Fairhaven.  Village Books is open till 10 pm every night except Sunday, when open till 8 pm.  Click their ad at the top of this page for their website.
