Dolly Ziegler used to proofread genealogy books and got unbound
copies that she was allowed to keep. Because she was moving, she decided to
donate them to Arlene's library. Dolly put them all in Girl
Scout Cookie boxes in advance of our arrival but left them untaped in case
we decided to put them in larger boxes. I (webmaster & photographer Kathryn)
was thrilled that they were unbound because I had calculated space for bound
books. It meant that none had to go in a roof carrier. The first picture is
of taping up the boxes. My husband had made some boards for me to use to keep
the boxes from going forward or backward in case of a sudden stop. To that,
I added cargo netting to tighten it all together. On one side, we left enough
room for the insulated bag we call our refrigerator (blue in 6th picture),
and the other side for the box with the currently in use client materials (seen
in 5th picture). Then in the back, on either side of my scooter, we tied down
all our bags with clothing etc., and our "pantry" box. Although the
last picture was taken before we put all the things in the back, you can see
we were happy to get all the book packing finished.
