kids climb on the bridge
shirtless girl lies, waits for cars
to run her over
living on the crick
kids playing under the bridge
building crayfish homes
family road trip
highway, then river, then stacks
of three mile island
down by the water
to climb the gemini tree
grab branch: ACK! a snake!the hundred year flood.
i am an island, bobbing
high point on the road
walk with your lover
along monongahela
guy fishing: head cheese
kingfisher shrieking
skinny dipping, red light on:
septic tank is full
In other news, today my little girl referred in conversation to doing something "by myself," instead of her previously preferred "by my own." I caught my breath and had to bite my lip hard to keep from bursting into tears.
