December, 2021 Painful earache. Quick trip to walk in clinic. Antibiotics. End of story. Not quite. Dehydration, sepsis, acute renal failure, various system malfunctions. All coupled with difficulty finding medical assistance on a holiday weekend. If not for my family doctor and a fantastic staff at Christus Saint Patrick hospital of Lake Charles, very likely a different outcome. I am home now, back to work slowly, growing stronger every day. It is good to be back at my desk again! I will be available every day throughout the late fall and winter months. I am saving a record number of books from individuals who wish to have their books and minerals preserved for others to purchase later. Thank you for putting your trust in me to do just that. If you have collections to preserve also, please let me know. The Company will start moving inventory to our new home base in Wyoming next Spring. I will start packing up books in January. The inventory will be split for quite some time. I will ship your orders in the future, some items from Lake Charles, Louisiana, and some from Powell, Wyoming. I will post on the website which catalogs have been moved. I will move entire catalogs at one time. Please send your book, mineral, and fossil orders to me at: msbooks@booksgeology.com Many new historical books have been added from the Arcadia Publishing Catalog for 2021.
