Okay, I didn’t find the library – Dawn did. There is a little green sign on the main drag in Kyle that points to the library and despite the fact I’ve driven past it hundreds of times over the past five years – I’d never seen it.

Dawn and I went and got our library cards and long-time readers of this blog will know that mean something big to me. (I have written about libraries many times.)  I am a big fan of libraries – not just because you get everything for free… okay, maybe that is the big reason. Regardless, I know I have officially moved into a location after getting my library card.  There is some sort of permanence that I feel when I have a library card in a new city.

I am sure that like every library I have used, my usage will be in fits and starts, but there is something very comforting about knowing it is there anytime I need.
