Sorry this week’s wandering is a little late (and a little lame... I mean, a library again?) But it’s really the only place we’ve been lately, so... here goes.
We went to story time yesterday at the West Jordan Library. It was actually by far the best library story time I have ever taken my children to. The librarian who ran the show was great, the kids absolutely loved her, the whole thing was themed (boxes!!) and at the end, each kid got to decorate their own box to take home (with a little prize from the librarian tucked inside!)
Now, when I say we “went” to the library, what I mean is we walked to story time. The library is only about a mile away, and half of that we get to walk through the neighborhood (the other half is on the scary busy street). It would be a nice walk, except it was snowing yesterday and it was about 32 degrees outside. Yikes.
Well, Russ had the car at work (can’t drive a motorcycle in the snow), so we walked because I had to get out of the house. I also have a weather shield for the stroller, so it wasn’t bad. And when the sun was shining and the wind wasn’t blowing, it was actually too hot for a big coat.
Story time is officially part of our weekly routine – rain or shine (or snow!) – and hopefully the van will be available for us. Otherwise I might just have to check out the bus schedule... for a 1 mile ride. Seriously, it was cold.
Ratings:
Value –
It was like free preschool. You can’t beat that.
Location – 
Uh, 1 mile from my house? It just can’t get better than that. And the library is on the main street (and just off Redwood Rd) – better than the last library we visited.
Fun Factor – 
The kids loved it, and Vincente actually remembered everything about it and regurgitated it to Russ when he got home from work.

We had the best story time ever when we lived in Roy. Having been to several libraries literally coast-to-coast, she was/is still the best. That's so great that you can walk too. And you actually can drive a motorcycle in the snow. Just make sure you have the right gear. It's obviously not as comfortable but still can. I grew up on those things. My grandpa was still riding his in his 70's! And in the snow, all over the farm.
