Hello LM_NETters, Traveling from Florida to the beautiful state of Maine (now I know why they boast Vacationland on their license plates) was very interesting for sure. Now when I'm stressed I just think about the view on top of Cadillac Mountain at Arcadia National Park. On the return trip I attended my first ALA conference in Washington, DC. I knew it would be big and I knew there would be authors but I didn't realize there would be so many and that I could speak with them so easily. I'm glad I brought my camera since pictures of me and Christopher Paul Curtis, Markus Zusak and Sharon Draper, just to mention a few, are a huge hit with our students. A highlight while in DC was to participate in the Library Day on the hill. I was one of many librarians sporting a red t-shirt that stated "SUPPORT LIBRARIES". I walked the halls of the Rayburn building until I found my representatives from Florida. I was able to speak to them about supporting the SKILLS ACT. My students are truly interested when I explain my experiences in Washington D.C. Of course I loved The Library of Congress too. Next time I need to attend the AASL conference to focus on school libraries.
