A trip to the Library
For several weeks Vicki and I have been meeting at the library on Tuesdays in the coffee shop there. I thought that I would show you a little about our interesting library. The new part is built on to the back of this house. I wandered around today and came to the front door by the inside. It was locked with a thumb-bolt and chain but I unlocked it (left the chain on) and peeked out to be sure that I was where I thought I was. The picture on the left is the old stairway just as you entered that door. Upstairs there was a meeting about to begin and lots of chat and laughter was floating down the stairs. I didn't go up to investigate. This is the new part with it's automatic doors and outside book return and all the things new libraries have. Inside there is a little courtyard where the two buildings meet. One can go out there but I don't know if it is ever used or not. The library is only a block behind my house. I go past "the monument" to get to it. Man...
