The day I returned from vacation, I felt happy, energized, ready to tackle things, including the 175 email messages waiting for me. I felt a sense of accomplishment after enjoying the great outdoors with hikes and floating the river, tasting new foods, meeting new people, reading a good book, and visiting with family.
As I was reading through my email, this article struck me as something that we all might have in common as we return from our vacations, as new employees join us in the Libraries, as we step outside our world of work and home, and visit new places and meet new people.
