Lookin’ back/On the track/For a little Green Shack (sorry)
I was returning some books to the Old Strathcona Library recently, when I noticed a whole little party-style setup just South of the building. We’re talking picnic tables, art supplies, a cute little shelf that said “Outdoor Reading Room.”
Because I live in the neighbourhood and had never noticed this before, I wondered what the deal was. Was this for hobos? Was it for school children? Could I fingerpaint something and then read a Babysitter’s Club book? Would I be judged for asking?
I wandered around taking a few pictures, much to the chagrin of passers-by, who all looked at me like I was going to snatch somebody’s baby. What am I, Peter File over here?
