I am sad that I could not get the video to work, since everyone one on here is raving about it! I do think that it is great that the library is keeping up with the 21st century and not set in their old ways. The more people accept that the times are changing the more beneficial they become!!!

Mary, if you’re even coming to The Netherlands, there is still the promised Bushmills. From your remarks I must gather that you still miss out beloved Kate. Well, who doesn’t. And she still deserves to be heard. Well, in any good library one might consider lending out cd’s and dvd’s in this day and age.
And yes, I have the Kate Wolf DVD and it is amazing.
So…..

The boys meanwhile are back in town as I write this, and tired but in good health I think.

I will drink one for you. Who knows in the future…

Best wishes, Pim

What a wonderful video! The folks at Fremont Library — indeed, the creative folks in Florence — are an inspiration! I live up the hill in Colorado Springs, where the library district has programs to attract crafters, seniors, and teens. Am excited to see the Fremont offer all this — and OPEN SOURCE ILS! They prove that there are only boundaries if we accept them.

Pim, you brought a tear to me eye. Won’t quote the source of those lyrics since I can’t collect on the Bushmills. But I love that music and miss the wonderful word pictures so much! Love to watch the hawks ride columns of air current, up here in the rolling hills of Colorado.

Drink one for me, yah?

[...] of the Shanachie Tour videos of American public libraries released so far, my favorite is easily the one from the Florence Public Library in Colorado. Not because of the message of “the open source ILS song” sung by two librarians there, [...]

YES, it works. Nice tune, singing ladies, but still no SHANACHIE-song. Sad.

Hi Karen, the song was a big hit in Monterey. Videoproof will follow soon. Video should be ok now but that won’t stop us to come back again.

Guess our singing broke your video camera, suppose you’ll just have to come back and do it all over again!

Sorry guys, the video doesn’t go any farther than Erik on horseback wanting a few minutes to be a cowboy. then it starts again.
Obviously the cowboyscene is too much for this machine.
But open sources?

Hoi Jaap,
Ziet er goed uit, nog een paar nachtjes slapen en de reis van je leven zit er weer op.
We zijn benieuwd naar je verhalen en foto’s.

Tot gauw,

Hi, guys, starting to miss you right here.
How are things right now? Completely bankrupt after the “library”visit in Vegas? Or driving in limousines ?

One never knows.

When will you ne riding through “the golden rolling hills of california” “where the redtail proudly soars”(please take a picture of that if you can, and guess the soarce of those quotes, the winner gets a glass of 16 years old Bushmills Malt at my place!)

Good luck with the show!

Have a hug and a smile
