Labor Day Holiday & Survey Results

The Meyersdale Public Library will be closed September 6th in observance of the Labor Day Holiday. Please visit the library this week and select a good book, magazine, or movie to relax with during the 3-day weekend.

I appreciate the effort many of you made to respond to the Library-Use Survey we made available during the summer. I was very pleased to learn the overall consensus was that our library is doing a good job in meeting the expectations of the community. Many of you expressed your gratitude for the our collection, atmosphere, and helpful staff.

Your criticisms were acknowledged and valued. While there is little we can do about the frustrating parking situation, we did renovate the public bathroom and included suggested materials into our collection. The Meyersdale Public Library is here to serve you. Your suggestions and contributions are an important part of helping us be the best we can be. Other areas of improvement are be evaluated at this time. We will be announcing new technological upgrades soon!

Sydney Airport, Terminal Control Unit

The Sydney Airport Terminal Control Unit at Mascot sits close to the runways which jut into Botany Bay, alongside the old airport control tower that operated from 1972. The old tower was designed and built by government departments in an era of entrenched bureaucracy. The engineers did not consult with the air traffic controllers, so it was not tall enough and views were unsatisfactory. It was replaced by the current Sydney Airport Control Tower in 1996 which is functionally and technologically better.

MERDEKA IN LUNDU!

Went back to Lundu yesterday to transport over the old bathroom and toilet doors from the old house. Yes, we are going to recycle all the planks, doors, staircase for our 'retreat' house in Lundu. That is one of Daddy's dreams. Soon Daddy, you will see the house built beautifully by uncle. My Dad was actually from Saratok but he loved Lundu very much, I know why. He met Mom here, for the first time ♥ ♥ ♥

My Mom is the one from Lundu, precisely at Kampung Klaoh. Just a minute away from the famous ferry, then the coarsely made bridge. *giggle*.

The weather was so bright yesterday. Damn hot! The journey from Kota Samarahan was like one and half hour because we drove slowly. Needless to tell you that I had a packet of Yeo's Winter Melon drink, a bottle of soda, bottles of Mineral water. I can't stand the heat that is why I gulped the drinks just like a fat camel. By the way, have you ever seen a fat camel before? I don't think so. Haha.

When we arrived, I only sat in my aunty's house for a while. It was super warm inside and I was not comfortable to sit on the floor. Yes, blame it on my size. I felt suffocated. Therefore, I joined my hubby and brother Ted sitting at the storehouse.


Brother Ted, sitting on my cousin's bike. You can see hubby's leg hahaha, my nephew and cousin in the picture.


Baby Ashlyn, my cute little niece. I felt sorry for seeing her tried to follow her elder cousins and being rejected because she is still small.

... and Gabby, she still looks OK today, even after long hours playing under the sun!

So what did you guys do yesterday? Tell me!!


With Love,
