A Misty, Moisty Morning -- Adventure Number Two!















All of you Ave blokes should be happy to know that I survived my drive home from campus last weekend--the fog was as thick as pea soup. And it sounded like the frogs were, too. The drive past the old cemetery and the Catholic cemetery (necessitated by a road closing) was also incredible. There were dozens of candles flickering in the dark--about the only things visible that night. And it had rained earlier that day. That cemetery always reminds me of the Surmanski girls. Both of them liked to wander there, either to contemplate, to have quiet to themselves, to read, or to take photographs. It was the perfect distance away to take a walk to, and had just enough tall, old trees, winding two-tracks, and little hills to make you feel you were in another world than the one we lived and ate in. It was a good place to walk to and through. I like to escape the city. Oh, and I chanced to meet an old man . . . but he wasn't dressed all in leather. And I put $40 in my gas tank all at one shot. How do you do, and how do you do? How do you do, again?
