Hey, everybody!
Today, I’ve got a couple of awesome photos for you, which illustrate interactions between human beings and the natural world, and feature (especially!) bicycles! I was inspired by the thought that our new library should soon be getting a bike rack. Who knows what wonderful things may then be seen in Mount Kisco?
The first photo is by Ton Van der Weerden from Holland. The horse is a Dutch Draft, a breed I did not know before. Isn’t he beautiful?
As you see, the type of horse is very similar to the Belgian Drafts from my home town, but the hairstyle is quite different! For pulling, people in my part of the world clip the horses’ manes short and trim their fetlocks. In Holland, they leave the horses’ hair long and make beautiful braids!
And here’s a Russian Blue kitten, photographed by Lindy Meow! Gorgeous, isn’t it!
This one’s definitely set for wurld domanashun, don’t you think?
So, it will be very exciting if we do actually get a bike rack at the library!
In the meantime, I am happy to report that we did get some new furniture today! Behold the Teen Room Computer Desks! The teenagers tell me they like them a lot, and I think they are very pretty!
That’s it for this afternoon — enjoy! And I am always amenable to comments or suggestions!
PS Don’t forget, Emma McGlauchlin and Nicola Kraus, authors of The Nanny Diaries will be at the library to introduce their new book, The Real Real on Wednesday, September 30th at 7:00 PM!
PPS Just noticed, I ended almost every sentence in this post with an exclamation point! What in the world was I thinking?!
