I've got my book and am ready to sit here reading.
It is called "Carrying Albert Home" by Homer HIckham. Buddy Ebsen (of Beverly Hillbillies fame) was Homer's mother's heartthrob when she lived in Florida. Buddy sent his mom an aligator when she married another man and moved back to WV. The story is the adventure of take the aligator back to Florida.
Lowell, there is little better than a comfortable chair, good light, and a good book to read. The only trick is finding the time where someone isn't bugging you to go do something else.
What a cozy little corner. I love that rocking chair. It reminds me of the one my mother had when I was just a kid. There was nothing more soothing than to sit in mom's lap in that chair as she slowly rocked and hummed a lullaby. Thanks for that very pleasant memory.
A good rocking chair is a welcome sight.
ReplyDeleteAhhh….very inviting!
ReplyDeleteYou really find time to rest?
ReplyDeleteVery soothing and organized, not cluttered. My type of relaxation area! Love this. :)
ReplyDeleteA perfect spot to read with the window over your shoulder! It must be a popular location, Lowell!
ReplyDeleteThe comfort zone!
ReplyDeleteYes! I'd happily sit here with a cup of tea. Or coffee. Or cookies. Maybe a glass of wine. Do you take orders for here?
ReplyDeleteA fine chair, good light, and about 500 books. Bliss.
ReplyDeleteAn inviting chair, perfect to sit and read a few of those books !
ReplyDeleteIt looks so comfy there!

I wonder if I've read any of those books?

ReplyDeleteI’d like to be absorbed in reading at that chair or have tea while listening my favorite music, feeling the caress of the light.
