Had a neat experience today that happened totally by random chance. This morning while reading the Greeley Tribune, they had a feature article on a touring book bus that hands out free books to underprivileged kids around the country. It just so happened that the bus made two stops in Greeley this week, before heading back east (article here: http://www.greeleytribune.com/article/20110615/NEWS/706159967/1051&ParentProfile=1001). I just happened to be meeting Noah and Jen at the Verizon store when what pulled up but the bus! I got to speak with one of the two people in charge and get a picture. Really neat group, so please check them out over on Wordpress (http://bessthebookbus.org/). Nothing beats the feel of a new book in the hands of a reader, not even a Kindle.

That is an awesome coincidence! Good to know organizations are still promoting literacy for underprivileged socioeconomic groups. Hope all is well!
