Our Weekend

Last night was cool because we went to Table Rock and took a walk on the dirt rode up to the top of the hill. The air was chilly at first. There was a haze over everything making it hard to see and recognize the shapes around you. I kept wanting Willy to shine the flashlight on wild animals that turned out to be bushes. There were so many stars to see! When we got to the top of the aptly named Table Rock, the area was illuminated by a large fluorescent cross that is a Boise landmark overlooking the city nestled in the valley. It is a very beautiful sight because you see all the lights against the surrounding pitch black hills. Willy has heard that on a clear day you can see a hundred miles into Oregon.

Tonight Willy took me to see the new movie Elizabeth, The Golden Age. We both liked it a lot. I knew that I would but I wasn't sure that Willy would like it too much. He says that he did and was all fired up to be the hero. He hated leaving the theater to confront the neon lights on the street. That, is the power of stories.

Can't wait to see everyone!
