Yes, of course ! Cruising through the Villages looking for most anything is routine. If you've ever come home very late (say from a late flight into Orlando) and seen the people who go through the waste reciprocals at the postal stations, and the old trucks that peruse the streets before dawn on garbage days... and then see something with "FREE LITTLE LIBRARY" written on it.... that's a disaster in the making. It's sickening to think there are people who would not even recognize those words as meaning a place where a person can take A BOOK FREE. In the world of so many, the idea of a "free little library" has only one meaning... take it, it's yours !
