My name is Vicki Baty.  I live in North Myrtle Beach, South Carolina which has, in my humble opinion, one of the most beautiful beaches on the East Coast.  I walk the beach almost daily and am always awed by the beauty of the ocean, the freshness of the air, and the amazing sea creatures I see.  Not a day on the beach goes by without of few lines of John Masefield's poem Sea Fever echoing in my head...

​

"I must go down to the seas again, to the lonely sea and the sky,

And all I ask is a tall ship and a star to steer her by..."

As I just retired from owning an used and new book store, Bookends in North Myrtle Beach, my husband and I take a lot of walks either on the beach or at the North Myrtle Beach Sports Complex. I've always been a big reader and as we walk I tell him about the book I'm currently reading. 

​

You'll note that all my blog postings are the titles of books, but don't be fooled, the blog is not necessarily about that book, just a themed title!

​

So please, walk with me, talk with me as we enjoy this journey.
