Charleston trip
So while we were in Charleston I had to go to the library to complete a history assignment on a Carnegie library, as well as look for a children's book for a Human Growth and Development assignment. The library is newly remodeled and it is amazing! It was huge and beautiful, the older original part is so nice with exposed wood and firplaces and the new children's part of the library is so much fun, Topher cried when I told him that it was time to go. They have a large play area with a train table, puzzles, blocks, planes, board games,etc. We also went to the Lincoln Log Cabin which is about 7 miles from Charleston. They have a visitors center that has a small museum with "Lincoln" talking about his life when you push a button, which talks about life here at that time. They have a farm with people dressed in period clothes who can answer questions and it has animals and a garden. (pictures to come) If you can believe it I forgot to bring the digital camera during this trip, and of course we were gone from the 19-27th, so we had to buy a disposable camera and we haven't had the pictures developed yet.

That sounds like a really neat place. Hallie gets upset when we just leave the Lakeview Library... I'd hate to see the scene at a great library like that!
