Our River, and Other Niceties

This is what our river used to look like. I won't show you what it looks like now, because it's too depressing. It's nearly dry. All the water is frozen. Come spring, the ice will melt and the river will rise. The river will bring with it warm air, bugs, and smiling faces.

Amanda is in New York City with Peter, Alison, and Mac Owen. We wish her well. We wish her safe return.

Good evening.
