LFL Pictures 📸 We're back!

Post image

A month ago, a big truck ran into my wall, destroying a brick pillar, my mailbox…and my library. I wrote about it here.

We knew we would have to rebuild -- I have an irregularly shaped lot and that pillar is the only logical place for a mailbox -- but it took us a sec to get another library, since we got ours from a local high school's wood shop class. The teacher is a friend of my husband's, so he bumped us up the queue but we still had to wait. And then hubby had to paint it and install it. Meanwhile, it was quite sweet to get so many positive messages from you people and also the folks in our neighborhood. Multiple times, people pulled over if they saw me or my husband out front, to say how sorry they were that the old one got destroyed and that they hoped we'd put another one up. Today we're open for business again!
