Full Moon Rising, December 12, 2008, Twiltley Branch Campground, Collinsville MS
Tomorrow I'm heading out. My stay here has been really pleasant and I'll miss being on the water. I'd stay longer but the holidays are getting close and I need to find someone to do the front end alignment I've been putting off and putting off before everyone gets distracted with holiday cheer. LD's front tires are not happy campers. I need to get this attended to before I put on many more miles.

Was Love Then
Was love then like a bag of assorted sweets passed around from which one might choose more than once? Some might sting the tongue, some invoke night perfume. Some had centers as bitter as gall, some blended honey and poison, some were quickly swallowed. And among the common bull's-eyes and peppermints a few rare ones; one or two with deadly needles at the heart, another that brought calm and gentle pleasure. Were his fingers closing on that one?
