The Lakeport Public Library is a high-gabled two-story ginger bread Victorian on the corner of Lake and Park that was donated to the town after the First World War. They pass the police station, the Parks Department, Eden’s Gate Realty. on a Thursday in February, watching the children run ahead down the sidewalk- Alex Hess wearing his papier-mâché donkey head, Rachel Wilson carrying a plastic torch, Natalie Hernandez lugging a portable speaker-the feeling threatens to capsize him. All day, joy has steadily inflated inside his chest, and now, this afternoon, at 4:30 p.m. He is an octogenarian in a canvas coat his boots are fastened with Velcro cartoon penguins skate across his necktie.
He escorts five fifth graders from the elementary school to the public library through curtains of falling snow.
