I love the beach like a dog likes a bone. The warm sand sprinkling in my toes. The sound of the sea splashing against the rocks. Having ice cream so cold it makes your moth feel like it has frostbite.

My favorite place growing up, was the library of Downtown Swansea, I love the old book smell, like Petrichor, the pleasant smell that accompanies the first rain after a dry spell, it makes my mouth water. The librarian, much beloved by me was Shirley Johnson. She was small in stature, a cloud of white hair and freckled button nose. The fact that she rarely smiled did not make her an unfriendly or mean person, in fact she was very sweet, but shy. She could always be found at the library seated on her perch behind the front desk keeping a cautious eye on everything inside. Her diligence was always so graceful. If you were looking for a book or waiting for a returned copy, she would hold the book for you or help you search each shelf until it was located.
