Chapter Two

I made it home ok. I walk from the Cannery to the water tower, it is steep. But from the water tower home is fun, gravity working for me.  Sometimes I get worried about the brake pads, but so far all is well. The difference that day, when I passed the Keehnels place, I see it plain as day, above the trees floating on the breeze.  I am moving fast downhill now, too fast to stop, have to focus on the road ahead.  Passed the cattle and fowl, passed the ponds and fields, left towards Milton.  I am still seeing the ship above the trees, even though I have traveled six miles, it has to be 600 feet up or so… and 600 feet long. Floating on the breeze. I made it home ok.
