STILL SLOW DRIFTING . IN OVER THREE OR FOUR HOURS IT'S CLEAR THERE HAS BEEN FORWARD MOTION , BUT AT ANY GIVEN MOMENT I FEEL FROZEN IN TIME . I AM A STILL SHOT . I GO BY BERRY BUSHES AND A HOT SUMMER SUN HAS THEM COOKING IN THEIR JUICES ; THEY POUR OUT A FRAGRANCE THAT IS ONE OF SUMMERS SECRETS . MY PADDLES GRAB PILES OF WATER AND WHIRL THEM BULGING INTO A FLAT GLASS SURFACE . IT FEELS VERY SOLITARY . LIKE THE HUMAN RACE IS SOMEWHERE ELSE TODAY.
I TRY AND JUST GO WITH IT NOW , THINK AS LITTLE AS POSSIBLE . (GOOD LUCK WITH THAT ONE KHUN CHUCK) DURATION IS THE NAME FOR THIS PART OF THE JOURNEY.
.
CAMILLE AND I WENT TO SUNDAY MORNING CLINIC TODAY. THEY PULLED A LITTLE BLOOD AND WE HIT THE TRAIL . UNEVENTFUL IS GOOD AT THIS STAGE . COUNTS ARE CURVING DOWN SLOW TO WHAT THEIR NORMAL START LEVEL WILL BE . ALL SIGNS ARE THAT BROTHER DAVE IS IS ON A ROLL IN THERE.
ROLLING ON THE RIVER , KHUN CHUCK

I have a feeling that my boat
has struck, down there in the depths,against a great thing.
And nothing
happens! Nothing...Silence...Waves...
-Nothing happens? Or has everything
happened, and we are standing now,
quietly, in the new life?

Dear Khun Chuck,
I just wanted to let you know that you have a fan out here - I've been reading your blog regularly and am inspired by your strength, courage and amazing writing! I work with Christine at the UW and just wanted to sent out a holler that I'm thinking of you!
