Thank you also, Jackie Willoughby of the New York Public Library

A couple of days ago I thanked the the Carnegie Library of Pittsburgh for an article they sent, but I just learned that I must also thank Jackie Willoughby, the New York Public Library ILL Borrowing Supervisor who processed my request for this article! Thank you so much Jackie! I really had given up on finding this article, and I’ve since read it and have already used it in the book I’m currently writing about Blackwell’s Island.

This turtle was watching me! He looks mad. I am never going to Central Park again.

  1. Please keep going to the park! I think that is just the way turtles look. 😉

    Speaking of the way, my husband is walking the Camino de Santiago and I thought you might enjoy his photos.

    If all those numbers don’t pan out, go back to ‘albums’ and forward from there.
    You can comment on the pix if you belong to Flickr but otherwise, you could message me on FB if you really want to comment. But don’t feel obliged. Just enjoy them.

  2. Wow. I envy him that walk. He should caption the photos, it could just be a few words, maybe not all of the pictures, but every once in a while I wanted his thoughts on what he was seeing.
