Briefly
Myers Memorial Library To Host Photo Exhibit
FREWSBURG — The Myers Memorial Library in Frewsburg will host an art show showcasing photographs by Frewsburg resident Linda Trotsle. The opening reception of Linda Trostle’s nature photography will be today at 5 p.m. “My husband and I moved to Frewsburg 47 years ago. We have always enjoyed traveling, particularly the kind where there was nature and hiking included. About 10 years ago, our African guide told me his Hawaiian client had a bird life list of over 1,000 and that I should start a life list, also! I have become a total bird nerd and will totally admit to it! My life list is at 778 different bird species and I will be adding to that on our next trip in September to Africa.” The photographs will be on display at the library throughout the month of August.
