Really well-worn-in oxford cloth.
Feet dangling over water.
Stuff like this packed in a bag.
White-washed piers.
When this is my view.

Infinite Jest by David Foster Wallace
About Me
- Hillary's Brook
- Chicago
- I like to look at things and make things. I thought it might be interesting to share some of them. I also thought this would be an easy way to keep track of the things I find so I can find them again. We'll see how it goes.

Ah, summer. You did a great job capturing it.
ReplyDeletemelanoma? k
ReplyDeleteRuthie: I love you!
ReplyDeleteN&W: Thank you!
K: Thanks for your concern. I know you disagree, but it's my FAVORITE THING. Growing up in Texas I get that you don't get this love, but it's my love... I only get to do it maybe a couple weekends a year. I do wear more sunscreen now, at higher SPF numbers than I ever have in my life... no more baby oil which I did do on these same piers for many, many years. With iodine drops. Tin foil reflectors even sometimes.
