Me...

My photo
Gary & I recently hit a "reset" button transitioning from 25 years of full time RVing to a 725 sq. ft. cottage. Next we traded our 42' fifth wheel for a cute little 25' Class C motorhome and the huge GMC diesel truck for a Jeep Wrangler! We haven't given up on travel in a RV; now we have the best of two worlds: a home base and a travel vehicle. I love libraries and particularly I have loved Carnegies since I was six years old. One of my hobbies on our travels is searching for, visiting and photographing Carnegie Libraries across America.

A Thought...

  • "Whenever there is something that can't be done; something can be done."

My Carnegie Libraries blog

I named this blog Journeyin'. . .My Quest for Carnegie Libraries in America One of my traveling hobbies is visiting and photographing as many of the Carnegie Libraries that still exist. In the late 19th and early 20th century Andrew Carnegie (yes, the Carnegie Steel Company magnate) helped fund 1,689 across America. He believed "Free to All" should apply to libraries.
