Again From The Dark

When you read this, I imagine I’ll be in a car with seven other people, trekking through one state to reach another.

Whirlwind days. Sunshine and rain. Beach walk and icy cold water. Night swimming and late sleeping.

Wedding rehearsal and wedding the real deal.

Cousins. Family. Friends.

Kids dressed up so sweetly I almost couldn’t bear to look.

But of course I did.

When I return home and have all the wonderful photos that Riley took this weekend at my disposal, I’ll share lots more.

Tonight, however, I’m typing again in the dark at my brother’s house in my nephew’s bedroom and I’m too sleepy and too in-the-middle-of-it-all to analyze and share.

I’m just soaking it up and drinking it in.

And, of course, when anyone else is awake enough to read these words, I’ll be driving beyond it all.
