Journal Entry 1 by RubyLadyBug from Seminole, Oklahoma USA on Friday, March 1, 2019
By virtue of library book sales where I took home books by the actual truckload, I amassed 14 copies of the same book. Since I happen to know a group of BookCrossers in the greater D.C. area I figure that this is a great book for release.

The first line isn't bad either so as a twist on the game I am sending the envelope of books so that everyone can take home a copy.

French architect Pierre Charles L'Enfant was delighted by the sight of the Potomac River valley spread out before him.

When I decided to come back to BCinDC for an extended visit/relocation I decided to send some stuff to 6of8 via media mail rather than try to heft it on the bus. So I wrapped up the box and sent it along its way.

This heavy envelope of the 14 books is still intact and I still intend to pass them out at a BCinDC meeting but probably not until we are able to meet in person.

CONTROLLED RELEASE NOTES:

This book is going with me to the BCinDC meeting at the house of ResQgeek ... our first in-person meeting for a long while (due to a global pandemic) and MY first in-person meeting in lots and lots of years as I have been living in Oklahoma a far commute. [I am currently staying at the house of melydia but will be middle USA bound once more in a short while.]

FINALLY! I get to pass copies of this book around in a fun fashion at a meeting of BCinDC folk that may end up with multiple copies themselves!!!
