Montana...you never heard of it??? It is an odd story, and I too have seen clips in books and papers and such..think the whole exhibit thing is nice...plus..it makes me go into the BPL which...gasp...I have yet to have done. Arent you planning on a trip down this way sometime?


Quinn
I'm just as amazed as you are that I never heard of it. I just asked my mother if she had and she knew about it, although she didn't know the details. I will be going down there soon, but it looks like it won't be until the beginning of Feb. It's a shame because I would have loved to join you all. When I do go down, I'll be wrapped up in business while I'm there and won't have any fun time unfortunately :-(

SP - bring the pups! What fun!

Montana, how could possibly come all the way down here and not meet with us?


Philbis, "Broonz"! Funny.

And how about the weather tonight? I pulled into my lot after work, not a flake of snow to be seen, there'd been sunshine all day. NPR had just warned of Squalls of snow - charight. I walk the 15 yards to my front door, walk through my apartment to the back door to let the dog out and when I opened it there was a swirling whiteout happening and there was already accumulation. Never seen anything like it.

Ooooh, an invite to a Boston gathering... I haven't been to one in AGES! I would love to go. And can take the choo-choo if it is a blizzard!!

This sounds great. I have connections at the BPL, you know. (Its the only place I do.)

Not for this event, but did you know they opened a restaurant and cafe in the Copley Library? The restaurant is great. They had coupons in the Metro for it. But it is a buffet style lunch in this great room surrounded by books (shocker) overlooking the little park. We could even meet in the cafe in there for coffee beforehand. Then off for debauchery after.

The first Abuzzer I ever met, I met her at a bookstore... now all these many years later she sends me an invite to meet at a library. Such literary, bookish gals are we.
