A new bookcase

This week we found this bookcase outside a house in our street with a note attached saying 'Free to a good home', so we took it home and put it in our hallway. Sunnyboy is really pleased with his new bookcase.

    What a great find. I love free stuff! New York is one of the best cities for free stuff on the street, too.
