#23: The Library

A book club that you can belong to for free? Thousands of books and materials you can borrow? I just renewed four books I have out from the library here in Arlington. I love libraries. I love books. And I always take my library card as a ticket to information, escape, adventure, and fun. From the time I was a little kid I always liked to wander the shelves and check out new stories. As an adult, I am not really so different. Currently checked out? Netherland, Lark and Termite, The Plague of Doves, Mosquito Coast, and the Big U... Yes, libraries are something to be excited about, proud of, and thankful for!!!
