Sunday in The Low Country

Sunday was a quiet day.

Affagato is always a nice way to start the day.  

Especially in the sweet Low Country Cider Company.

 

It was a quiet day.

I spent the evening in bed with a advance copy of Laurie R. King's next Mary Russell novel, THE LANTERN'S DANCE, which is excellent, and a bit of what my mom would have referred to as "traveler's tummy," not so excellent.

But . . . tummy is much improved this morning, and 

Life is Good

From Inside My Book Fort - - - "Folly" by Laurie R. King

Welcome to my book fort.

Today Annabelle and I are reading "Folly" by Laurie R. King

Folly is one of my favorite books ever.


 I think it's an important beautifully written story about survival.  Hope.  Strength.

Protagonist Rae Newborn is a woman I will long remember.  She "has come to Folly Island, far out in the Straits of Juan de Fuca, to rebuild her life by building a house."


I hope you enjoy this passage
