hillfolk on the Modern patio

Twilight 

I overheard them on the way to my car, and circled back to have a Caldera IPA at the bar, and listen in for a few minutes. It was as glorious an evening as you had any right to expect, and even though I had just a few minutes to spare, they were well spent there on the patio, listening to my friends do their thing.
All was right, just for a few minutes.

Tire Me

Give me 5. I need a spare.

New Murals, All The Time.  

The Boise Hole is a lot of things. Eyesore? Maybe. Dwayne Carver told me he kind of likes the rusty forms poking up out of the hole.
Of course, the Hole is a monument to our present condition, as well as the recent past.
Failed credit lines, failed ideas, failed imagination.
The facade that is tacked up to conceal it. Even though the facade has interesting content sometimes.

Planter Lady.

AT AA5 . Watching her phone and not the band. It's what it all means.
She found her person and they met by the fountain. The cracks on her heels made me think about my girl, and the things that you get to know about another person in the course of your life together. There are so many mundane things to share. Like cracked skin and physical ailments. 
Perhaps you shouldn't.  The mystery of another person keeps the heartrate go up, the pulse to quicken. The early relationship times where things are new and exciting. 
It can't go on forever.
Can it?
