This Month at Thompson-Hickman

“Happy Holidays, Folks!

My partner, Sam, and I just returned from a vacation that included Ireland. Before we left, I had contacted Madison Valley Library in Ennis and spoke with director Molly Aagard.

She gave us a memento to give to the folks at the De Valera Public Library in Ennis, County Clare Ireland ( http://www.clarelibrary.ie/ )

So, late one rainy afternoon, we dropped by the County Clare Library and did a brief visit with

the staff. We would have liked to linger there a bit longer, but the day was getting away from us and it was nearing closing time. However, we hope to stay in touch and plan on visiting them

again on a future visit. We will return soon – we loved Ireland and her people, and felt incredibly fortunate to have been able to visit.

All the best for the holidays and the New Year!”
