Otros Pedacitos Aleatorios

The night before Al died, an incredibly intense thunderstorm came out of nowhere and pounded the mountainside briefly. It knocked down a little tree in the front which fell across the driveway and Alfie had to go out and cut it down and get it out of the way. Behind the house a huge Beech tree fell and crashed down over the swamp. It was sad because of the all the trees in the forest behind the house this white Beech was by far Alfie's favorite and it was just another notch out of, another poke into an already sensitive situation. But days after Al passed the boys discovered the tree and literally spent days in it with their friends, thru meals, til dark... playing amazing imaginary games, watching and trying to catch the frogs, challenging themselves to go further and further in to the seemingly endless nooks and crannys of this huge tree... I also include a random (aleatorio) image of how the lawn gets done in the evenings around here... long live oreo power!!!!
