While the opening scene of my new blog didn't evoke applause with the deafening sound of waterfalls, I was deeply gratified with the comments from a few of my fans. Speaking of waterfalls, I have a story to tell you...
Long ago in a country far, far away, there lived a woman adventurer named Eva Kaneeva. One day she was strolling through the forest and heard a faint roaring sound. She walked towards the sound and it grew louder with each step until, suddenly, she came into a clearing where she had the most breathtaking view of a huge waterfalls. She continued towards the falls and the cool mist felt refreshing on her face. She turned back to see that the clearing she had traversed was a small pocket of an area surrounded by the thick forest. She wondered how that area was a field of grass while everything else was forest. She turned again to face the falls and looked up to its source. She had to strain her neck as it was a very tall waterfall. Then she got an idea...
Is eva the only person who is allowed to ask what happens next?
ReplyDeleteAnd back to the boat, were you just posing with it? Or did you take a ride in it?
The Martha Ann was Dad's boat and we did spend the summer on Onieda Lake fishing and swimming with her. She had a 327 Chevy engine to drive her single prop. She was a very powerful presence on the lake (at least we thought so)! I have fond memories of warm summer days and nights on the lake, with Dad.
ReplyDeleteThe story of the waterfalls has a conclusion that I am not ready yet to divulge.
OK, I'm back from thanksgiving vacation in Ohio and caught up with your blog entries.
ReplyDeleteCool boat, but even cooler hair!
If you don't hurry and divulge the ending to the waterfall story we might have to start making up our own ending... "Then she got an idea. She decided to change her name from Eva Kaneeva to Evil Knieval..." Well, my ending to the story just gets sillier from there. Something about jumping a 327 Engine boat across the falls.
Can't wait to hear the real ending!
