All the Fuss

"It is indeed the ability to see wonder, surprise, possibility in each experience and each encounter that is a core aspect of joy." The Book of Joy

Both my son Sam and my husband Paul love the 7th floor reading room at the University of Southern Maine Library. Sam discovered it while he was a student and was there almost every day. Paul discovered it because he just loves libraries and it was within walking distance from where we used to live. Paul and I spent the day in Portland...and while he was in a meeting I took my book to the 7th floor reading room.  I now know what all the fuss is about.

As you walk in there are floor to ceiling windows with sweeping views of Back Cove and the city of Portland. In no way do these pictures do it justice.
