Our town library is huge! I mean HUGE! It used to be a very small town library that was warm and cozy…but they knocked it down and built a humungous 21 million dollar library! I still can’t believe it cost that much money! It is a nice library, but I actually miss the old library. The new library is so massive and cold feeling. It seems like a lot of wasted space and energy!
But we go to the library a lot! River loves it there. Besides the books, one of River’s favorite things about the library is the statue outside. It is called “Sunday Morning” by sculptor J Seward Johnson. The library had it on loan for two years, but when the two years ended, the library purchased it through donations and fund raising….it was a bargain for only $65,000! I guess when the library costs $21 million, what is another $65,000!
She loves to stand on the statue plaque and pretend she is a statue..but then she starts to giggle….Quinn told her to sit by the statue and they would both pretend they were statues…that just made her giggle more!…but Quinn was good at being a statue!
