Books for Breakfast meets on the 3rd Tuesday every month at 9:30 am.
We are currently meeting by both Zoom and In Person. Please indicate which way you plan to attend!
In December we will discuss The Ride of her Life by Elizabeth Letts - The incredible true story of a woman who rode her horse across America in the 1950s, fulfilling her dying wish to see the Pacific Ocean. In 1954, Annie Wilkins, a 63-year-old farmer from Maine, embarked on an impossible journey. She had no relatives left, she'd lost her farm to back taxes, and her doctor had just given her two years to live. He offered her a spot in the county's charity home. Instead, she decided she wanted to see the Pacific Ocean just once before she died. She bought an ex-racehorse named Tarzan, donned men's dungarees, loaded up her horse, and headed out from Maine in mid-November, hoping to beat the snow. She had no map, no GPS, no phone. But she had her horse, her faithful mutt, and her own unfailing belief that Americans would treat a stranger with kindness.
For people who attend the group regularly, a hold will be placed for you each month in time for the next month's book to arrive by our meeting date. If you are not a regular attender, please place a hold yourself or contact the library to place the hold for you.
