Great Week

What a week it has been. My mom's friend from France, Roger', came into town just in time to join us for my graduation on December 17th; how cool is that? We had a great time at the Library School reception held in the Virginia Dare room of the Alumni house.

The reception was much more formal than I anticipated. Our main speaker was Wanda Brown, president-elect of NCLA. She was quite inspirational. I also enjoyed the student speakers, one was my friend, Jason Hyatt. It was really nice to be formally inducted into the field of librarianship and I am very glad I attended. My mom and my daughter enjoyed it, too, as did Roger' who was able to converse with Dr. Carmichael in his native tongue.

After the reception we made our way to Old Salem and looked around for a bit before dining in the Old Salem Tavern. What a lovely way to celebrate this achievement in my life.
