“There are so many other
things Jesus did. If they were all written down, each of them, one by one, I
can’t imagine a world big enough to hold such a library of books.”

The Call Box
We passed this red rocket phone booth sitting on the highway. Of course I went up and peeked inside, where I found books! Maybe it is some kind of local book exchange? England is famous for it's red phone booths (or call boxes, as they call them). They are now starting to pop up all over silicone valley as the latest "in" thing.

Oh, so cute! I would certainly go there and browse through what they have and exchange with mine too!
what a great idea for a book exchange, I love the real call boxes and also this one. really cute and cheerful looking..
I love this idea of a local book exchange that comes in the form of a red phone booth. So convenient to exchange a book with one that we have finished reading wherever we are.
love the bright red! I've seen a lot of book exchanges in the area, but none like this one. so cute! you have a good eye. :)
happy Friday!

Hi Ginny
Yes we used to have those red phone boxes on every corner almost but sadly they have nearly all disappeared. They were originally replaced with more modern one's but even these are going now. With most people using mobile phones these days they just were not getting used.
I mourn the loss of them as they were a part of our heritage and unique but that's so called progress, thankfully we still have our red post boxes.

You do have a good eye for spotting the "odd" things!
I love red, so that is the coolest phone booth I've seen! Great idea to use for a book exchange place.
Have a nice weekend!

That is very interesting.It would seem to be some sort of book exchange.Who knows, but it does catch the eye.
Well, I love this cute little telephone box for reasons I think you will know lol. How neat that they have it as a book exchange. Such a clever idea to turn it into a mini library :)
I Like It!!!
What a cute phone booth! I love the rocket shape! I rarely see phone booth since everyone has cell phone nowadays. It's a great idea to use it for book exchange!
I have seen one of these phone booths in Minnesota once. It is a great use for a booth.
