“The Treasure of a Lifetime.”
Lifetime resident, Bud Barrows, has a thousand stories of life at Breakers Point, but there’s one tale he never tells. Why does he treasure a common clamshell over almost everything he owns? In Christmas at Breakers Point, Mallory learns the secret of that shell, but this short story puts Bud’s whole love story into context and gives it life.
When Bud first noticed Emily Sue, he fell head over heels.
In this short vignette from Buds’ childhood, you’ll journey from that second-grade classroom where he first truly noticed Emily Sue Bartlett, through their school years, until the day she gave him the one thing he treasured most then and something he treasured all his life.
Sometimes that first, innocent love lasts a lifetime.
“Treasures of a Lifetime” is an Independence Islands short story.
