I really ...Such a neat letter, Mrs. Moschmossgepup! I really need to get back to the library - it's been a long time and you've renewed my interest. But you know what brings back great memories? The SMELL of the books (just open them up and sniff the pages...ahhhh) and the feel of the paper jackets. The newer paper is just like butta. I think I'll print this out and hang it on the bulletin board in our library. It's a small town library and we can do that. Right next to the "free puppies" and the yard sale ads. Happy and optimistic, indeed!!Candyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08906584712170733253noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-874350888994718899.post-75628889622039528612009-07-08T19:39:26.153-05:002009-07-08T19:39:26.153-05:00You're so right and I think I need to make it ...You're so right and I think I need to make it a point to visit my library a little more often. For a while, we would take our kids there every Saturday and let them check out books and it was so fun.
