Yesterday, Eleanor turned One Year Old! We celebrated by eating salmon, swimming, going on a long walk along the R/R tracks, shooting bb guns, opening some presents, and finally building a big bonfire. This morning, we got up early and sat by that same fire (the embers had burned hot all night long, so all I had to do was throw some pine straw on there and a big-assed piece of cedar, which made the railroad earth smell like a burningbush sweat lodge and muscadine day in old muscogee creek country under blazing hot sun of early June) and ate cantaloupe, watching the trains amble along. The Lord smiled down and saw that it was Good, issuing forth a hot breeze that blew upon us mortals that said, "Today's a good day. Today I'll spare you my wrath."
