February 21 - Three Gifts White

White froth lifting us 

onto the next leg of the crazy run. 

Family rocking it on the 

Frank Sade Memorial Menominee Run,

August 4th, 2014. 

Thankful for

 Kosir's Mackenzie Bryant, 

raft guide par-excellence.

Joe and I, 

pounding whitewater as a backdrop,

sitting close to where Frank Sade 

awaited his homecoming

while in the Everlasting Arms.

Thankful for the Rock of Ages.

Youngest son, bracing himself against Lake Superior's fury...
white tongue intent on lapping him up.

Crazy boy, proving his manhood -

I'm glad he knows how to swim.
