Memories and Marshmallows

The sky-blue swell pounded the breakwater at Borthel on Sea in a steady rhythm. John gazed out at the mountains across the broad bay and drew a deep calming breath.

Memories and Marshmallows is a short story from the Tall And True writers’ website, written and narrated by Robert Fairhead.
