A daily post of Happy.
Day 352: For yesterday. Libraries! I've loved libraries for as long as I can remember. When my siblings and I were really small a favourite outing that my mom would take us on was to the local library in SoPo. We would be allowed to select a couple of books to take home and in the early days I was all about the "Little Miss" and "Little Mister" books. As I got older I discovered lifetime favourites in authors like Roald Dahl, Gordon Korman, and C.S. Lewis. There were some books I would check out over and over again (the Bruno and Boots series by Korman would fit that category) and some I would read once but the stories would stay with me forever (Henri Charrière's "Papillion"). I love the look of books, the smell of books, and how easily I can get lost in a good book and almost mourn it's ending when I'm done. In my university days at U of T I was lucky to have access to some of the best libraries in Canada. This is a shot of my local library here in OS, and it's a "Carnegie". If you don't understand how cool that is, I highly recommend a Google. It's stunning inside, well stocked, and has very friendly staff. I love going here, I love libraries...they make me really Happy! #365happydays A photo posted by @kaileyjane82 on Jul 17, 2015 at 7:57am PDT
