First Thursday Book Group
Our book discussion group generally meets on the first Thursday of the month at the library. Each month we all read the same book then come together to discuss it. If you are interested in joining the group, contact Cyndi.

Otto, The letter began, in blue ink, I've gone. I've never seen the water, so I've gone there. Don't worry, I've left you the truck. I can walk. I will try to remember to come back. Yours (always), Etta.
