well i got here following the southern star -- i crossed that river just to be where you are







we're loving our new neighborhood, taking at least one long walk a day, and sometimes more than that. bookstores, record stores, restaurants, and the great lake. ah, yes, unemployment and a late cool summer couple together beautifully. evesie seems to tolerate hanging with the 'rents, particularly enjoying us for rickshawing her about in her lovely mclaren stroller, and lolling on us for very serious, very important power naps. the above pictures are mostly from the lake, which she seriously loved. this baby adores the water. in fact, so far she is absolutely fearless. she is also crawling in her own haphazard way. in the last picture, she demonstrates her starting position while sporting two of her new favorite garments. thanks, mom! she couldn't wait to try them all on.

it feels silly to me, attempting to write any post when i look at this beautiful little girl. as usual, dylan says it so well, in 'mississippi' -- "all my powers of suggestion and thoughts so sublime, could never do you justice in reason or rhyme." yeah, evesie. before you can even form full words, you've rendered me speechless.

You're a poet, big guy, and obviously in love. Thanks for the update.
Love,
