Today, Ray spoke in support of the Main Branch Long Beach Library. Their city council had voted to close the library and use the property for commercial purposes. A letter Ray wrote to the local newspaper got the council to reconsider and the library will remain open. He also took a brief visit to see an old friend.

What a life force!!

Always in awe,

The Lake
