This weekend was devoted to Free Library Festival. I am still amazed by living in Center City where all my favorite places are within a walking distance! First, I stopped at Natural History Museum and listen to several presentations of the environmental scientists. One of presentation was on finding a chloride in the water. It was actually nice to see that the level of a chloride in a local water was normal. Next, I stopped at "Butterflies!" exhibition - that is truly enchanting experience - so many beautiful creatures ! Some of them didn't mind posing on my hand. Maybe, next week I will visit the exhibition again, since during Museum Week (April 27-May 3) there is no additional fee for "Butterflies!"


Although I was too late for so anticipated Molly O’Neill book presentation, Free Library Festival had a lot of other book writers meetings to offer. It was a pleasure itself to stroll through the fair looking through books and talking to authors. I really enjoyed talking to Surya Green, the author of The Call of the Sun: A Woman's Journey to the Heart of Wisdom - a sweet and inspiring woman. On Sunday I continue my "book hunting" and stopped at Skyline Salon to listen to Robert Goorlick, the author of A Reliable Wife
