Laurel Road Library


I just learned a nine-year-old boy's little free library has been shut by the Leawood Kansas City Council. They deemed it an "illegal structure." (C'mon, folks, it's the size of a birdhouse!) Here's the article.

That made me especially delighted when I came across this Laurel Road Library installation over the weekend,

Happily, it seems as if community response to Leawood's actions against little Spencer Collins is embarrassing the city so much officials might back off.

One of the rarest sights in nature is the enchanted circle of bowling balls-- and we have one in Pine Lake!
