Relocation Fever

In case you haven't stopped by, (or you have stopped by and wondered "why is there all that cavernous empty space behind the Hearth Room?") Body & Soul has now--for a temporary time only--moved back into our original building. No, we aren't trying to see how many times we can move the bookstore in one year. (However, we are getting quite time efficient with the task!) And yes, we will move one more time!

The books, music, and other supplies were relocated (by employees and kind volunteers--thank you!) on Monday, July 13. It only took one business day to transfer everything to the new location. Muscles were exerted, bookshelves were manuvered, and sweat was inevidibly present.


(Left) Jessica removes all the books off the shelves so that the heavy shelves can be pushed. Then the books are returned to their proper, alphabetical location.






(Right) Pam organizes the shelves that will be used behind the check out counters.

(Left) Jerry and Matthew do the heavy lifting. But of course, they always remember to lift with their legs.

(Right) Look a little familiar? This is one angle from Body & Soul's temporary home.

Business will go on as usual in this location until the various renovations are completed in the southern building (old Buttonhole building). The Hearth Room will also remain in business in its current location for the time being.

The first day of construction is currently scheduled to begin July 27.
