The Public Library

It’s just north of the tracks, off Route 84 on the way from Liberty County toward I-95.

It was closed, with limited hours. I left a copy of Southeast Yearly Meeting journal, so they could have some Quaker literature. I don’t know what they did with it, but I donated it by leaving it by the doormat with a rock on it. Maybe the librarian will pass it on to somebody if they can’t put it on display.

It’s on a lovely wide shady quiet street, in a small community near the coast. On the same street, there’s a little white house partly beneath a wide live oak tree. A little Black lady named Annie bakes cookies and pies and cakes. I would like to read in the library in the morning, then go buy a pecan pie, and a cookie, and drive home. I’d stop at the German restaurant in Gum Branch for coffee, or maybe I’d not wait, and I’d get the coffee right there in Midway, then go take the pecan pie to wife and the kids.

I’m rediscovering simple things! It’s a great place to take your children. They’ll be amazed. My local library also has cd’s and dvd’s. Books on tape and cd. Their is no excuse to be lacking literacy in your life.
