Little Free Library

June 29, 2021

 

Hello,

 

There are elves that come in the middle of the night to put books in the library. At least we think that is what is happening. Since I have put up pictures on social media we are getting a lot of books. Many cook books are “hot” items as they only seem to stay a day or two. Some of the neighbor boys, when going by said that is what they would like. Cooking and kids! Who knew?

 

Yesterday morning when the checking on the little library, it was not full with all titles able to be observed. This morning was a totally new look with many books in both the adult and children sector. What a change. Do books get added in the middle of the night?  We must fix the door as it does not close properly, but Leroy’s rubber band (bike inner tube) is helping.

 

I am surprised at myself because every day I have to check on this facility to see what has changed. Some days nothing and some days many changes have happened. We knew that there was quite a lot of foot traffic past our place, and this confirms it. It is so nice to live in a place where people walk a lot. We also see a number of runners, but not usually on our street, but a few streets over.

 

We have gone from dry to moist. We have had a number of days with just a little rain. Even though I cannot control it I would like to have a bigger rain and then a few sunny days. But it is so green now and we are grateful.

 

I am trying to give away some shoots of the fall sedum, but so far no one has been interested.
