Tour de Wyoming. It’s quite the deal if you’re a bicyclist! You can check them out on their website… or just keep reading. 350+ bicyclists come over the mountain from Buffalo. Yes, OVER THE MOUNTAIN. Bless their hearts. They’ve got guts and stamina! Then in two days, they head back OVER through Shell Canyon. It’d…

Check Out a Library
Because a day that started with babysitting at 5:30 am and ended at 11 pm when the second batch of kids FINALLY fell asleep… Because tomorrow is a BIG DAY at the Kids’ Rodeo in Ten Sleep… Because tomorrow’s post should be full of cute photos… Because you probably don’t want to hear my philosophy…
Silent Auction and a Story
Well, another year down for our Silent Auction/Open House. Attendance was hurt some from the large snowstorm that blew in… but support was still there. 103 items were up for bid. Craig Johnson was here as our Special Guest, reading his newest Christmas Post-it story. Everyone had a good time… there was plenty of delicious…
Upcoming Fun at the Library
[easy-image-collage id=16343] The Ten Sleep Library is completely decorated… finally… The display case is full of “vintage” toys. Yes, some of them are mine. The top of the case… The main room with huge ornaments hanging from the ceiling and silent auction items lining the shelves and wall. Then there’s the main entryway… Finally…
Snow Birds Wreath
[easy-image-collage id=16301] I took the wreath to Worland today, to be entered into the Festival of Trees Auction. I thought I’d share some of the competitors. We live in a creative community! Entries included the Elf Tree, the Tea Party Tree, Christmas wagon, Wooden Tree. [easy-image-collage id=16302] Christmas owls, pop bottle tree (made by Admiral…
TWEET
Although I feel like I should have lost 10 pounds in the past two days, of course, that’s just a dream. I have *worked* though! I’ve decorated the majority of the library… photos to come later… of course, we want it to look very spiffy since our special guest, Craig Johnson, will be there for…
Bigger Library
I made this and posted it on the Ten Sleep Branch Library’s facebook page yesterday at work… We’re happy to have a special guest at our Silent Auction/Open House this year! As of this moment, this post has been shared 46 times and seen by 7,455 people. I think we’re gonna need a bigger library…
Harvest Blessing
Well, it’s been a long day for me… I finished up my two donations to the raffle… a can lid pumpkin… and this little watercolor chickadee. I managed to paint him in a couple of free hours this morning! Nothing like waiting until the last minute! Then the twins and their mother made cranberry nut…
Cat Urbigkit – One Book Wyoming
If you follow the Ten Sleep Branch Library on Facebook, (or Red Dirt In My Soul… or me!) you may have seen me post that tonight was the One Book Wyoming event at the library with Cat Urbigkit. Cat has children’s books and adult books and three were actually chosen for One Book Wyoming (which…
WLA-MPLA Video
The Wyoming Library Association and Mountain Plains Library Association held their joint conference in Cheyenne, Wyoming. While these photos didn’t capture all the fun I had, this at least gives some idea of what it was like! Enjoy! WLA 2015 from Carol Greet on Vimeo.
Not Enough Time
Wednesday saw me headed to Cheyenne for the Wyoming Library Association’s annual conference. This year it was held in conjunction with the Mountain Plains Library Association’s meeting as well. This year, we were FOUR! What a fun crew to go to a meeting! First night was an opening reception at Cheyenne Frontier Days Old West…

First full day at the joint Wyoming Library Association and Mountain Plains Library Association meeting, and, as usual, it’s been enjoyable. Our opening keynote was Scott Ginsburg and he had us laughing and having “aha! moments” as well. My cohorts and I then split to attend various sessions, me, to storytelling, the legislative luncheon, and…
