So...Maybe ADVERTISE And Let Folks KNOW?

Urbandale_library_3 So, my wife comes by the office the other day and tells me she is depressed.  (I can understand that...considering to whom she is married.)  But, this time...it wasn't about me!

It seems the Urbandale Public Library is going to discontinue loaning out books on mp3.  At least that is what a staffer told her. Not a big deal for you maybe...but to her. 

She was told that it just does not pay for the library to loan out mp3 versions of books because, "...nobody is asking for them".

HUH?

Ipod_nano_2 You mean with thousands and thousands of iPods and telephones equipped with mp3 capability along with a host of home players on the market...nobody is asking for books on mp3?

We think people just don't know.  Seems that once you are inside the library there are several signs letting you know they are available.  Even a scan of their website yielded little information.  Maybe there might be more interest and action IF the library actually let folks, who don't come into the building on a regular basis, know?

Think it's worth mentioning?

Rural Lifestyle Radio in Des Moines

Hollow_head_vinyard_michael_l_2 For those of you lucky enough to live here in the Des Moines, Iowa area we invite you to have a look at our radio show blog for Highway 6 - Your Road to the Country.  More photos and a better outline if you click here.

Each week we talk about living the rural lifestyle complete with projects, tips and stories of importance to those of you living on small farms or acreages.

This week one of our guests will be Michael Leo.  Michael, from Austria, has always dreamed of having a vineyard.  So...with the help of some friends (Yes, that is me on the only piece of mechanized equipment allowed past week) we planted about 1,000 grape vines on a 3 acre hillside just south of Des Moines.  He'll be on the show talking about that experience and how living the rural lifestyle here is so different than living that lifestyle in Austria.

Hwy61_image_2 That's Highway 6 - Your Road to the Country heard each Sunday morning at 8am on 98.3 WOW-FM.  If you can, come on by for a visit.
