New Fall Hours for Library

This came this evening from Joanne Stewart:

Our library committee met today and decided to reduce the fall hours.   We'll now be open Tuesday and Thursday from 2 - 4 until Columbus Day Weekend.  We hope to have many leaf peepers stop and visit our little library, along with local patrons.

Also, we had visitors today, from Lyndon State College.   Two media major students asked to film the history and reopening of the library.   They interviewed Pam, and will air the segment sometime next week on their Channel 7.   It will also be available on their Facebook Page.     We're delighted to be getting so much coverage!

Our thanks to all who have been so supportive.

We are glad the library has been such a success.  If you haven't 
had a chance to stop by, plan to do that before it closes for the 
season.  I know you'll be glad you did.

In case you wondered, I measured 1.30 in. of precipitation Monday 
morning. This morning I had only .04 in. in the tube, but it has rained 
fairly steadily today, so I expect tomorrow morning there will be at 
least an inch.  We are fortunate compared to what is happening in our 
southern states.  The Houston, Texas area is still reeling from 
Hurricane Harvey, and now Irma is bearing down on Florida.  We are
thinking of all the Joe's Pond folks who may have to deal with Irma.  We 
hope they are safe and the damage isn't too severe.  All of Florida is so
close to sea level, it doesn't take much water to cause problems, and a 
hurricane causing a storm surge of several feet could be devastating. 

Unfortunately, there isn't much anyone can do about the monster

storms at this point.  Just hunker down and hope for the best, I guess.
