This is certainly a library like no other! Libraries, traditionally the hub of a community, have evolved with the times. The Rancho Mirage library is an exceptional example of a 21st century bibliothèque — and no surprise it is one of the top rated libraries in California. Dedicated to making lifelong learning available for all residents in the Coachella Valley, the Rancho Mirage Library is a must, whether you are a local or a visitor.

"Chihuly’s Persians are a celebration of wild symmetry and swirling patterns of color. First exhibited in 1986 as part of his exhibition at the Musée des Arts Décoratifs, Palais du Louvre in Paris, the dramatic forms are presented on pedestals and in compositions mounted on walls and suspended from ceilings in the form of chandeliers and towers. Displayed in museums and galleries around the world, Chihuly’s installations have captured the imagination of art enthusiasts and the general public alike. His ability to transform glass into breathtaking, larger-than-life creations has made him a celebrated figure in the world of contemporary glass art." I never thought I'd have the opportunity to see one at a public library. Wow.

I was at home, doing some typing of my lines for work later this week, putting them on note-cards and then in a pocket notebook so I don't have to carry around a full script. I was also getting a Covid test. As the Tester was leaving, I went back to typing. She was thrilled to hear the sound, once more, of a typewriter hammering words into paper.

Good for you getting an Olivetti Valentine. Those can be finicky, but are classics. Get it working!

I'll away from the office for a while, but will send you another machine - I'm clearing out the chaff. You'll get one that works well enough.

Throw deep,
