Never a Dull Moment!

Jeff Armstrong shows the audience 
his boa constrictor during the library’s
most recent session of their
2015 Summer Reading Program,
featuring “Animal Avengers.”
Jeff's  six-year-old snake is a subspecies
of a red tail boa, measuring nine and a
half feet in length......and is still growing.

Plan to attend the library's next program
on Thursday July 16th at 2 P.M.  It will be hosted
in The Lawrenceville High School auditorium, and
features The Madcap Puppets — “Once Upon a Clock.”

July 16th & 21st are the

final two sessions of the

A glance at the "Before"

Her decision to help others

 The beautiful "After"

 

It's Your Turn

Beat the Heat

Caught in the Act

  Playing with your
phone again........in church, huh?

Out of Many, One

"You have to love a nation that celebrates
its independence every July 4th, not with
a parade of guns, tanks, and soldiers who
file by the White House in a show of
strength and muscle, but with family
picnics where kids throw Frisbees, the
potato salad gets iffy, and the flies die
from happiness.  You may think you
have overeaten, but it is patriotism."
                                                               ~Erma Bombeck

 

 

Yes, we're a part of a special community!
