Driving Teton Pass
In 1997, my daughter and I drove to Jackson, Wyoming, so she could check out an environmental college. It was June, and that summer had extreme flooding all over the western states. There wasn't GPS or mobile phones (or phone photos!). I took a paper map and plotted our route with a highlighter before we left home.

HORROR Review of "The Man in the Black Suit" Stephen King short story
I have an older, very thick book of Stephen King's short stories. I've read many of his older books but not short stories. At the end of "The Man in the Black Suit," King states that his favorite Nathaniel Hawthorne story is "Young Goodman Brown." He thinks it is one of the best American short stories ever written. This short story by King is his hommage to that.

Triplets Torn Asunder
She died. Eleven months ago, our identical sister Lynn died. Our third, a fraternal brother, Louis, became deeply depressed. He did a psilocybin retreat in the Netherlands, followed by intense psychotherapy in Munich, Germany, trying to recover.

Watermelon Pickles
I love cucumbers! I love them plain, with salt, with or without the peel (wash well if the peel is on to remove the wax from store-purchased ones), in vinegar, or in sour cream with dill. Sometimes, I only peel part of the cucumber, slice it down the middle, add a touch of sea salt, and munch away. Usually, I do NOT peel them - fiber is fiber, right?

Big Friendly, BF7
This is for Belle's unofficial challenge Inside the Animal's Mind I don't know why humans think I smell. Odors from my kind are delicious, reflecting what we've eaten, the dirt in our fur, the intestines of our prey that we rub all over ourselves, and our excrement. Humans are the ones who stink. Females smell better than males, but sometimes, their acrid odor makes me sneeze; it seems to be once every change in the moon cycle.

Ivan
Written for Belle's Inside the Animal's Mind [an unofficial challenge] I don't like this new home in this glass box with humans walking by. I miss Larry and his mom and dad. I used to sleep with Larry, and he rode me around on his bike. They didn't like that I was breaking things in their house, so they put me in this see-through box. Breaking things wasn't done intentionally; it was because I was playing, and I'm stronger than Larry's dad.
