What would we do without libraries?
This was the library when we first moved to Snohomish. Part of it was over a hundred years old the rest was a new addition. We loved it like we've always loved every library where ever we lived. What a wonderful place a library is, I'd go as far to say their the finest institutions ever established. I remember our library up in Fairbanks. It was on the air force base and it was literally a hole in a basement. But, we were so grateful it was there! It was 35 miles into Fairbanks. I remember listening to records about composers with the children .Going to the library was always a happy outing for us, continued to be even when the children were older.
A wonderful tradition to have. I love to see my grandchildren love books, I just don't think there is a more wonderful thing to instill in a child then a love of reading. What's better then curling up with a good book? Let's not let technology take that from us.
Here's our new library built in 2003. Boy, did we feel special when we saw what a wonderful library they were building us. It is wonderful but I have to admit that the old library was alittle more personal. But, there's so much to love about this beautiful library.
