The library hosted a swim party for all kids 6-18 who had read over 30 books in the Texas Reading Club. There was fun in the Friendswood pool, plus grilled hot dogs by the Boy Scouts and popsicles for everyone!
Churchill's country house. I was having fun browsing the titles; thought others might too. The library is unfortunately not as Churchill left it; it was extensively disturbed as family members claimed books after his death. But this section seems to give an idea of the contents.

I may have a problem. These were just the ones sitting right there. There are at least four others I can think of including my current favorite- Tartine Book No. 3. That one is by my bed. ;-)
And if you are a bread nerd, you might want to watch this video. The way the bread undulates as it's sliced toward the end? SWOON.
I run a monthly craft session for children at my local library with help from a great teenager. At our last session, one of our regular young crafters pointed out poor Coco who was in need of help, so he came home with me for arm reattchment surgery and after a few days of recuperation - and reading through the entire contents of my bookshelves, he has returned home to the library fit and well.

A gorgeous Neo-Classical Building on Orange Avenue. I had assumed that it was a Carnegie-funded library, but the benefactor in this case was John D. Spreckels, the owner of the Hotel del Coronado. The Library opened in 1909.
We R ur community beggin fer access
These pets spent most all of one day this week attempting and achieving entrance to the library. Seems their owner was busy inside but returning periodically to give them water in little cups.
Some customers paused outside and waited to enter. Some children inside hurried to open the doors to let the dogs come right on inside.
They could be heard barking from the second floor on occasion and were retrieved promptly when they scurried into the library's Local and Family History room.
The Library of Parliament is the main information repository and research resource for the Parliament of Canada. The main branch of the library, which is the focus of this article, sits at the rear of the Centre Block, on Parliament Hill, in Ottawa, Ontario, and is the last untouched part of that larger building's original incarnation, after it burned down in 1916. The library has been augmented and renovated a number of times since its construction in 1876, the last between 2002 and 2006, though the form and decor remain essentially authentic. The building today serves as a Canadian icon.
In the foreground you can see the original Victoria Tower Bell. It's the only relic remaining from the Victoria Tower. It was cast in 1875 and installed in the tower in 1877. The bell fell from the tower during the Centre Block fire of 1916. The bell's inclined position recalls the angle at which it came to rest after falling during the fire of 1916.
