"The marsh gives way to Pond, to dunes, to Sea;
Cicadas call it good, and I agree.
At midpoint, center of a Hemisphere
Too blue for words, I've grown to love it here.
Earth wants me, it shall have me, yet not yet;
Some task remains, whose weight I can't forget,
Some package, anciently addressed, of praise,
That keeps me knocking on the doors of days."
  --from Midpoint, John Updike

Retired, but not completely!

2026-2009: Shore Country Day School Library

My daughter Lori had just become Librarian at Shore Country Day School. The position of Assistant Librarian was open. Although I loved my librarian position at Northern Essex Community college, Shore was just up the street from my home and my daughter needed an assistant. I applied, had an interview, was hired and totally enjoyed the three years I spent in the excellentl Shore Library and the delightful Shore Country Day children.
