Really appreciate the person who responded to this by scolding me that books belong in a library not a home, whose post was up for about 30 seconds before they (apparently?) thought better of it and deleted it. I donate tons of books every year to my library. But I keep some... RE:

Spent a few hours today at the Hayward Toy Museum, getting a personal tour from the proprietor, Bruce, who pointed out all sorts of fascinating little details. If you're ever in or around Hayward with some time to kill, totally worth it. [haywardtoymuseum.com](

As a kid our family Thanksgiving tradition was that we did TWO Thanksgiving dinners on the same day. First with my mom's relatives in Queens. Then somewhere in the late afternoon/early evening we'd leave that one and drive to the Bronx for one with my Dad's relatives....
