I was also enamored by The Hive after this module. I wish every library could have a large multipurpose space like this one. It was interesting to hear more about the partnership that led to its creation through your post! —Caitlin

I love everything about this. Every effort that you have made to bridge this divide has undoubtedly been seen, felt, and appreciated by your young patrons and their families.

That parody story about the gossip network really cracked me up. That would be a great example of a silly way that we could (and almost always should) play around as adults. Your description of library workers as “conductors of joy for our community” is going to stick with me. Awesome post!

Thanks so much for your kind comment. Wow what a spectacular quote! I haven’t read The Little Prince, and that alone makes me want to pick it up.

San Diego is so wonderful! That’s sweet to hear that your fiancé has been to the Coronado library and has good things to say about it. 🙂

That’s so sad that they had to close :(. I will never forget those cinnamon rolls.

Yes, DFW has such an awesome food scene! That’s pretty cool that you were able to find so many good vegan spots around there. From what I’ve heard, good vegan restaurants seem to be hard to come by.

I grew up in the Dallas area of Texas, and I love San Antonio! I have some family there and enjoy visiting from time to time. I remember one bakery with colossal cinnamon rolls very fondly.

Almost putting off the last few episodes that we haven’t watched, because what in the world will we do without new episodes of our comfort show after that?? Tragedy!
