Shasta Notebook
June 22, 2004
Blogging from Mt. Shasta, CA WARPED Overheard at Lake Siskiyou yesterday. Parent to kids in water: "Oswald, Ruby, come here." OK, Ruby is a nice name, if retro. Oswald even stands alone, tho stuffily. Together, ya gotta wonder. One kid named after President Kennedy's killer, the other after the killer's killer. What's up with that? WONDER Ava, four, this a.m.: "Mommy, the crayons got longer on vacation." (Well, we did buy a new set). WOW More clear blue skies and bright sun, with one little round cloud, perched exactly atop Mt. Shasta. Cosmic. Posted by Matt Rosenberg at June 22, 2004 09:08 AM Trackback Pings TrackBack URL for this entry: Comments:
Having skiied on Mt. Shasta, and being very nearly to the top, I can tell you about that little cloud. It is almost always there, and really isn't a cloud so much as it is the tremendous mountaintop winds continually picking up snow powder in astoundingly large quantities, swirling them around madly, and then redepositing and picking up some more. Up close, it's even MORE cosmic!

I would dearly love to have a daughter like her one day. My wife was especially fond of chatting with her. Matt really did a wonderful job as a dad. Little girls are wonderful, delightful creatures, especially for their fathers. But I do hope that Matt has some ulcer medication ready for the inevitable day when Ava will be a teenager. I feel your pain, brother! Posted by: James J. Na at June 24, 2004 12:42 AMPost a comment
