Library Day

Makenzie and I went to the library Sunday!  The library building isn't open to the public, so we couldn't read in our favorite reading room, but we took a blanket to sit on the ground and enjoy the fountain, the flowers, and the breezy fresh air.  The sun was really bright, so I used my face mask as a sun blocker.  When the clouds rolled in, we decided to pack up and go home.  We realized when we stood up that we had laid the blanket on a ton of goose poop.  Luckily, we had put an old blanket down first and a better one on top.  We threw away the old one, and Meema gave us her leftover plastic 4th of July table covers to use as the bottom layer next time.  There's a small pond behind the library, and people always feed the geese (even though there are signs everywhere asking them not to feed the geese because it really ends up hurting the geese when people feed them).  The geese wander all over the library property, so there's poop EVERYWHERE (super gross!!!!!).  Besides the poop issue, though, we had a fabulously relaxing afternoon of reading and enjoying the beauty of an Alaska summer afternoon!
