The day I received my first library card was a joyful and memorable one. I read almost everything that I could get in my grubby hands. My high school and college pay checks came from working in libraries. The local library is my home away from home. Stacks of books - TBR - decorate my retirement cottage. My other interests other than my grownup family are photography, movies, and genealogy. My passion which keeps me moving out-of-doors are plants and my landscaped garden. You might say that “Gardening is my roots.”
