I work in a county with so many Sasquatch sightings that Sasquatch is legally protected. So yeah, I both know people and have met multiple people with stories. They're mostly pretty boring other than the fact that they are Sasquatch stories.

I say the same and have no explanation.

Thank you! And thanks for reading. I feel like I could have written twice as much, and the fact that I think that much about it is a reason to leave in and of itself.

Valid points. And as a library worker I think it is so important that people understand that just by using their library and services they are supporting the library and where funding goes. Also, until recently, it was just common practice to pay for a newspaper subscription. A paper one! Shocking.

Oh, I do like Stonehenge but I've also had issues with tearing/pulling up mostly when I've masked the edges.

Sounds delicious. Like potato salad soup, in the best way.

It's so true. As a library worker I can attest to the fact that one of the service libraries provide is just somewhere for be people to be out in public. I worry about my regulars if I don't see them for a while. For many people who live alone, we might be the only people they talk to in a day.

I was recently talking to a friend who now gets mail delivered to his house instead of a PO Box. He lives about 3 blocks from the post office but he said that he doesn't bump into a lot of people now. It made me wonder about unforeseen breakdowns of communities in exchange for small conveniences.

It has a paywall, unfortunately. But should be accessible on the Vancouver Public Library site, as you likely know. Apologies, can't resist a plug for libraries!

There is something special about works I can read in full on a rainy Sunday afternoon or in the lamplight hours between supper and bedtime.

I love a short novel. Margaret Renkl recently had a piece in the NYT on short books, which I enjoyed reading and getting recommendations from.
