My favorite quotes from the book:

"A fish that never opens his mouth won't get caught."
"Always a good idea to start with saying something nice. Leave your vinegar till the end."
"Libraries are about books. Books have no color. And they don't care who reads them."

A New Experience

Wow! We received about 2 inches of snow last night, and this morning when we left the house before seven am I had my first experience seeing snow plows. The southern girl in me kept thinking snow day snow day no school for us! I could not believe that school had not be delayed or canceled. Yet again we have snow plows here so off to work we go. I can't believe we have more coming! For all my friends in Georgia and in South Kakalaki I will keep you updated with pictures of the snow we hardly ever see in the South.
