  Gregor Rare Books was nostalgic and hit every heart sting in my soul.
  My husband and I visited Langley, WA, which is a quaint, lovely, tourist town on the southern part of Whidbey Island, accesible from the mainland via the Mukilteo Ferry or a drive through Deception Point at the Northern end of the Island.
  Langley has evolved from a sleepy island community into a high end tourist destination where dot com employees can spend a weekend and a ton of cash on just about everything you can imagine.
  A tourist who isn’t heavy with cash can still enjoy some of the town’s shopping experiences. The eateries offer broad selections and prices, so taking a day for lunch and a nice walk won’t break the bank. Being retired or on a budget still works!
  Now, down to business.
  My favorite find in downtown Langley was Gregor Rare Books. It was exactly like walking into the same store twenty-five years ago. The vibe was perfect and felt like a sanctuary from the downtown glitz and bling of Seattle. But best of all, was David Gregor. He was a true bohemian in his mellow unassuming nature, sitting behind his desk reading the latest book about Leonard Cohen.
  I cruised the few aisles and felt that David Gregor had hit the bells and whistles of what any book collector would want in his or her collection. Being an ex collector myself, I checked prices and conditions. The books were well priced for their value. His collection included Hemingway, Kesey, Steinbeck, Hesse, Kerouac, Harrison and too many more to mention. The books in this store were the books I cut my teeth on and grew up with. He hit most of the greatest writers of our time.
  It wasn’t lost on me that David Gregor had about five titles by his own hand, two of which I bought and are currently on my reading stack.
  Did I mention that he is also a musician?
  David is just a really smart guy who happens to be very well read, can play the guitar, is disciplined enough to write and has a beautiful bookstore in downtown Langley. Jesus tap dancing Christ. Perfect life. He is hanging out, just being …… a bohemian.

  Gregor is my place for the finest books. I purchased my first in 1988, Keith William Nolan's "Death Valley". Gregor delivers quality at a fair price. Thanks, Dave!
