Avid readers of The Library Pilgrim blog (hi Mom! hi Dad!) will recall that we visited the lovely small-town
Fergus library this summer, and it ended up being one of three small-town libraries that we discovered.
While in Stittsville we walked over to the
Stittsville Library, conveniently located right on main street. There we discovered one of my favourite additions to the modern library - the community puzzle.

We all found our way to the table, and spent a pleasant half hour trying to fit pieces in. Even my 5-year old was engaged.

We had such a good time with that library puzzle that we started our own 1000 piece odyssey when we got home.

| It begins! |
The end of the summer took us to the lovely town of Port Stanley where we descended on the beach to celebrate my 40th birthday with a party I called Pineapplepalooza! The day before the party we explored Port Stanley, including a trip to their library.
The Port Stanley library is connected to the Festival Theatre, creating a lovely little culture hub. We arrived in the space, and my girls immediately settled into the library's offerings; comfy chairs and good books.

Speaking of books, the check-out desk is made of them!

The decor is appropriate for a port town.

So for this library nerd, the summer was full of wonderful new discoveries. Who knows what we'll find on our next adventure?
