We have bought used books from libraries over the years. I have three novels by Jan Karon from our Oostburg Public Library “A Little Library Growing Everyday.”
Karl took the photos at the Oostburg library in July 2018 and 2019.

I completed a draft for a new book of poetry, and now am selecting possible photos by Karl. He took these photos of the pelicans and Lake Michigan in May 2019.
