dragon treasure

Have you ever thought about what a dragon's cave looks like? Do you imagine piles of jewels and coin ready to roll around in? My dragon's cave is actually a large library, yes, it does have a cave-like nook for napping. There are lots of bookcases, good lighting, comfortable chairs with tables for the next book to be read, lots of pillows, blankets and a great rug. Windows would be higher up to keep direct sun off the books. And, sad to say, the shelves are not made of wood. They're metal.

Yikes, you say? Wood is wonderful. Wood is warm. Wood is beautiful. Yes, I agree, it all those things. However, it is also food for things that would destroy the books. I'll stick to metal, thanks, and hope.

I'd love a fireplace but really, fire in a room full of paper?

Sounds dreamy doesn't it. Sigh, well, it is. A dream I mean. My current library is spread though out the house/garage and is disorganized or in out of the way spots to the point of not knowing for positive if I have a book and if I do, where it is! So, yes, I dream of libraries like some people dream of chocolate.

Okay, I'm not that bad, but it's close!

Thank you!

I have no idea why the captcha thing is showing up. I've got the setting marked "no" that I don't want it. Grrrrrr! But, I believe that if you skip entering anything it will post.
