FISHING WITH PAPPY

Bonjour Meme,

I spent the morning messing about outside of Me' Log-row. I thought I would get something done early, but once I began walking across the meadow towards the area I wanted to explore, I felt sick to my stomach.

After I sat down for awhile, I started to feel a little better; and once I began walking across the meadow again, I started to feel better. And I felt even better with Me' Loss prancing alongside me, happy, and excited that we were once again exploring.

The land gently slopes down in the north-east corner of the meadow, to the banks of a huge pond that takes a good four or five minutes to walk around. I don't know how I missed seeing the pond from Me' Log-row when I can clearly see Me' Log-row from the pond.

A pair of ducks were perched on a tree branch, which is overhanging the pond; I never heard of ducks in a tree!

Me' Loss waded into the waters and began swimming around the pond. And I thought, why not? I freed my clothes, and found out, why not! I became in instant icicle. I swam to the middle of the pond and I turned and swam back, with fish parting the water in front of me!

Pappy taught me to fish. I can catch fish!

Now I sit here, meme, looking at my life, and understanding my old life no longer exists. Sometimes I cry. But I keep my spirits high by thinking of our times together, and your words of encouragement. I know I can survive because of all I have been taught.

Thank you for pappy, meme. Sleep well.
