Went for a bikeride
with Sarah and James. The trail hugged the rocky shore of Puget Sound then
snaked between a freight yard and giant parking lot bumper to bumper with
brand new SUVs waiting to be loaded into boxcars like so many refugees. Closed
windows, locked doors, and a barbed wire fence couldn't contain the new car
smell which came to us on a breeze. As a child Sarah was infatuated with
traffic cones. She made such a scene in a parking lot once that her parents
bought her a pylon of her own for Christmas which she cherished the way other
kids loved stuffed animals and which she still has at home. |
