It is a bitter sweet day today. Today it is official that I announce that I will be stepping down as branch manager at the Smith Valley Library on December 1st.

This valley has an incredible group of individuals who make having this job an absolute joy. My colleagues are the best and I truly have a wonderful team in the library system that I work with. Whoever gets this position next is truly lucky and blessed to work in this community and county.

I am very excited to announce that I will be working full time with my father on the family ranch and subbing for the school district during the winter months. It allows me to get home early and attend to my family. For those who know me well, you know how important family time is to me and this next step is crucial in moving forward in the family business.

The friendships that came from my position at the library will continue to grow and I look forward to becoming a more active member of the SV Friends of the Library and the book club. Plus volunteering when I can.

This is not goodbye. This is until we meet again. (I am not hard to find.)
