A Library








This is a library in a village called Eartham in a house that is beautiful and old with lovely gardens. The library of course is my favorite room.  I mean, it even has unicorn tapestries over the fireplace, a real fireplace.  The only sad thing about it is one could tell the library hadn't been used in a great while, and I feel that's always slightly rough on libraries, because they feel it.  They grow musty and censorious and remind me of woods that haven't had people in them for a long time. This library even has a hobbit door, though I've probably simply read far too much Tolkien. Though, it is thrilling that such things exist.

Again, I wish I could be there with you.
