Welcome to Litsy!

There they are! Loooaaaded #TATERTOTS(!!!) 🤤! And that drink with the lime is called Of Mules and Men—it‘s ginger beer and vodka. 🥴👌🏻

We had some big book raffles today among other big prizes, including a garden/landscaping kit complete with heavy duty wheelbarrow, helicopter rides, free kayak rentals, and restaurant certificates. It was a gear day with great crisp Fall weather. 🍁
