And then they rolled down the street and pulled into the driveway in 50's beach car that I couldn't identify. Exquisite was the word that kept coming to mind. Exquisite.

At the end you will find a beautiful home and a lovely LFL painted to match, chock full of great reading material for adults and older kids. The part I can't figure out is who would come here.
