Outside the Box

This is a window box I stumbled upon at the back of the general store located in picturesque Langley on Whidby Island, Washington. I did a double take thinking it was a shelf of books. As I got closer I realized the books were merely random pieces of lath painted to look like¬† book spines. The VERY original titles such as “Ten Minutes to Normal” and “My Family and Other Animals” made me laugh. Waiting for the Sunday night fairy to the mainland gave me plenty of¬† time to consider the many creative ways I too could re-think “outside the box”. The window box that is.
