After the Saturday Storm, Cool With Rain

Park chipper at Wright's Park

According to the radio the storm on Saturday was the worst since the hurricane-level Columbus Day Storm in 1962.   On Friday at Pierce County Library I noticed an email from Friends of The Tacoma Public Library Initiative – go to the Main Library back door for the August Saturday Morning Meeting.  In front of the County City Building I thought the usual wind effect would knock me over and wondered if the Friends had their information right, for the library was still closed for the two week installation of the new system.  At the library I did not know where a back door would be.   

Someone else got there, and I followed in.  We were inside the closed library, however the library manager greeted us, she knew we would have the Saturday Morning Meeting.  Some discussion led the library director, who was present, along with another library specialist, to suggest we have not only a recording secretary, but a social media secretary.  Change always immediate.  The Friends of the Tacoma Public Library Initiative hope more devoted library users will join. 

On the way back I got caught in the rain, only a little.  I went to Church on Sunday, then helped my cousin pick plums, then took the bus to a Pierce County Library.  On Monday Metro Parks brought the park chipper to Wright's Park to do some larger branches.  And the weather continues cool and rainy as September begins, after a summer that was very warm.
