LJ Idol Week 11- If the Creek Don't Rise

[lawchicky]

Myra couldn't explain why she was drawn to the sea. She couldn't swim. She was terrified of wading past her waist in the water, but she would sneak off to the beach whenever she had the chance. Myra had a collection of seaglass, which sounded exotic and natural, but actually were old beer bottles and discarded glassware that found there way into

Aw, it's too bad she never learned to swim (especially for safety's sake), but really nice that she became one with the sea whenever she needed or wanted to.

I loved the description of throwing back glass that isn't ready to be sea glass yet. That's pretty much how it works!

I like how you ended this, with her passing on what she learned with her grandpa to her daughter.
