DVD of the Week
This week's DVD of the Week is 'Molly's Game'

This week's DVD of the Week is Molly's Game, a dramatized adaptation of Molly Bloom's memoir, 'The True Story of the 26-Year-Old Woman Behind the Most Exclusive, High-Stakes Underground Poker Game in the World'. It's a crazy, fascinating story, which Molly self-describes as 'stranger than fiction'.

Tales from the Home of the World's Worst Weather
Thursday, April 26th, 6-7PM
Bitter cold, dense fog, heavy snow, and record winds: Mount Washington is known worldwide for its unpredictable and dangerous weather. For a mountain its size, why is Mt. Washington called the "Home of the World's Worst Weather"?
Join Mount Washington Observatory's Will Broussard for an investigation into the unique life and work of weather observers stationed at the observatory year-round. We will explore how the mountain's weather works and what it can tell us about New England's own weather patterns. This program will include interactive demonstrations, weather instruments, stunning photography, and video footage from the summit. This exciting program is appropriate for adults and children alike.  Sponsored by the Friends of the Gilford Public Library.

And here we thought that we were going to talk about Tales From the Home of the World's Worst Weather next week! Winter is being stubborn this year, but the Library building still stands. We have tons of resources to help get you thinking about Spring and Summer, like books on gardening, home improvement, self-improvement, cooking, and plenty of audiobooks to blast while you work.

Let's get inspired!
