Leaving 1203 Springs Forward South of Charlottesville

  • Scottsville Library 330 Bird Street Scottsville, VA, 24590 United States (map)

Come one, come all for springtime conversation and laughter at the Scottsville Library.  Children can bring adults, adults can bring friends, friends can bring neighbors.  Marietta invites everyone to think about what really matters as she hosts an interactive book talk about Leaving 1203.  Isn’t it relationships that count most—relationships with each other, belonging in the natural world, and your connection to yourself?  How about gratitude, humor, generosity, hospitality?  What’s the best way to spend your time?  Why does Marietta grow in gratitude for the lessons in good living she relearned while emptying her beloved-by-four-generations family home?  She will bring a few treasures from 1203 for you to check out—from the Depression, the second world war, and the kitchen, baseball field, and tennis court.  Copies of Leaving 1203 will be available for purchase and personalizing.  Save time to mix and mingle, warm up and tell stories.  Marietta will stay to bid all farewell with a see you soon.
