The Enchanting Greek Islands
Slide Show
Bob Angell, World Travel Photographer
Bob Angell has captured the soul of several of the most beautiful Greek Islands with many of his beguiling images. Starting in the capital, Athens, and then touring the popular islands of Hydra, Santorini Paros, and Mykonos, his camera captures the many local sights and idyllic rhythm of life that can be found there.
From the windmills of Mykonos to the white cave houses high on the volcano cliffs of Santorini, to the simple fishing villages of Paros, all have a different allure and beauty. You will surely enjoy his magical images of these unique isles.
The slide show presentation will take place at Wardsboro Town Hall on Main Street

*****
The library now owns a wattmeter which may be signed out and borrowed. The meter will register the amount of electricity it takes to operate electrical items (just plug each item into the meter and a read-out immediately appears). Have you ever wondered if your plugged-in electrical item, such as a computer, uses energy while turned off? Here is your chance to find out more. If you are a patron of Wardsboro Public Library, you may borrow the wattmeter for 3 days and test the electrical items in your home.
