I took this photo at my Mom and Dad's farm on Easter Sunday - we have the old community hall in our farmyard and it is almost 2 stories high. This is how much snow had drifted around it:
Lots of fun for my nephew (and Quinn and Charlie!) but it was kind of a crazy Easter egg hunt!
Now that we are further along into "spring" here's what it looked like this Sunday:
I am all for fun in the snow, but enough is enough! Let me just say that if that building is completely submerged when we visit next week I am heading south! It is time for some serious thawing to happen. (Meanwhile, Mr. C and Charlie were helping to dig trenches around the house to divert the anticipated water flow from the basement!)
And in library news, we have a super-fancy new library catalogue and you can search it from ANYWHERE! How exciting is that? For now, I have linked it here through the Loopy Library on the top right. Once you click on that it takes a minute and then you will be taken to the world of LIBRARYWORLD, or Rivier's little corner of it. You can then enter your search terms in the box at the top, or just browse the latest items I've been cataloguing. I haven't fully investigated whether you are able to reserve items from home or not - we will be learning together!
All of my noon hour regulars will be delighted to know that Model U.N. has wrapped up for now, so there will be no more of those meetings delaying your entry into the library! We are back to 12:05 opening Monday to Thursday, unless unforeseen circumstances arise.
Finally, I am so enjoying your artwork on our bookshelves! We even had our big group of exchange students from Japan decorate them for us - I thought I would share a couple of my favourites here:
