All of that actually happened....exactly that way....every little nuance. When that little girl in the white dress locked eyes with me I felt certain that I was in a dream. Then, on the way back that second family in the exact spot on the path......incredibly dream-like.

And, of course, those birds.....grackles.

I had slept in on Saturday morning on a night that left me with seven different journal entries. I rose just after the sun and went for that walk.
