And I was surprised to learn about the kerfuffle at the Huntsville public library which is only about 60 miles from where I live. Well, more saddened than surprised, I guess. Some of my neighbors are extremely reactionary and would probably love it if all libraries closed or at least featured only books with ideas that they agree with.

We'll see if I can find replacements for the 2023 holiday season. I hope so. Glad you guys are getting some moisture! As you say, future trips to the botanical garden may show the results of it now.

Your clock story made me think of the alarm clocks my husband and I have. We bought them shortly after we were married (almost 39 years ago), and they still work just fine. And for years we had an RCA TV that we also bought when we married, and lasted for, I think 36 years. As you say, they don't make 'em like that anymore... Now, if you'll excuse me, I'm headed to Guatemala, and then Peru...Margot Kinberghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08599589137890528065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1999659125625323494.post-50400265707678431572023-01-06T01:10:15.063-07:002023-01-06T01:10:15.063-07:00Happy New Year, Cathy!

I've definitely picked up a few good reads and shows from you, most recently 'Canticle Creek' by Adrian Hyland and the TV series 'Sherwood'. I so appreciate the light you shine on so many fascinating topics; I never know which link to click on first, they're always so enticing! One of my bookish goals for 2023 is to be more active in various online communities, so here I am, sending you a warm wave from Australia. Wishing you and Denis a happy, healthy and enjoyable year with many adventures and good reads!Emmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680482094215076707noreply@blogger.com
