Wow, that's a cool story. He certainly is an interesting library mascot.

I agree, plus I learned too late that the 'official' state cocktail is a brandy old fashioned. How good does that sound?

Thanks for sharing, Janette. If I ever get back to Milwaukee, I will have to see Simba in person.

Hi all!

It was so nice to see many of you last week.

On Thursday, Wendy C., Hector, and I visited the MKE PL and went to dinner after. At dinner (not the library itself), we learned about the resident lion at the MKE Public Library from the restaurant manager who grew up in the city. Thought I'd share this fascinating story:

Take care,
