Through the Reading Glasses, April 2017

By Janet Moore, Library Trustee

Get those foot stompin’ shoes on your busy feet and head to the Highland Lake Grange on March 30 at 7 PM for an electric evening with Mike Rogers, blind guitarist and harmonica man. On tap is a varied program based on teaching, travels, the music business, and folks from everywhere. Be there and be enthusiastic!

Need a break? Dive into magazines, yes, those recently forgotten paper and ink-based items whose pages you can dog-ear and fold back with impunity. Up recently: Discover: Science for the Curious, with a fascinating article on artificial intelligence. Yes, you do have more sense than machines programmed to vacuum your house or wipe out chess opponents.

Try the Nature Conservancy quarterly and discover how, after years of protection by First Nations, local communities are rebuilding a connection to Canada’s Great Bear Rainforest along the coast of British Columbia. And just in case spring brings remodeling dreams into focus, check out “This Old House” for excitement and ideas from Kevin, Norm, and the team.
