After two weeks in the house, we had our first real bit of trouble — backed up pipes. There’s always something when you buy a house, but we were more than a little disappointed this time. We had some time to kill as we waited for the plumbers to show up, so Bruce turned our day around by putting up the Little Free Library.
We picked our spot and he dug another large hole for the post. Soon enough, it was up!
The kids at the elementary school across the street found it almost immediately. I’d stocked it with the books from when it was at the other house, as well as many that I’d culled from Ezra and Finn’s collection. About half of the inventory was gone in a couple of days. As usual, people are slow to contribute, but we’ve had a few donations over the last couple of weeks. I think it’s another good location for a library. And, it’s just one of many on our street!
