The exercise:
Let us celebrate Kat's and my 12th wedding anniversary by finally getting to July's installment of Out of the Woods.
Had intended to get to the yearlong story on Thursday but then it slipped my mind until after I'd posted something else. So, here we are!
(I'm actually scheduling this on Friday night before we leave Comox because I'm quite convinced I'll forget again and then we'll be in August)
The exercise:
Write a four line poem about: landings.
We've landed in a hotel in Vancouver (technically North Vancouver) without issue. It was a remarkably smooth drive and ferry ride, actually.
Tomorrow the aquarium awaits, then a night with Kat's aunt, then homeward bound on Monday.
The exercise:
Write four lines of prose about: leaving no trace behind.
Well, that's the goal at any rate. We managed to get most of the packing done tonight, so tomorrow morning will consist of the remaining packing and then the tidy up.
Then the road and ferry ride to Vancouver. Wish us luck with the ferry part - it's a long weekend here.
The exercise:
Write about: the final approach.
Honestly hard to believe our time on the Island is ending on Saturday.
The exercise:
Write about: sleep.
Like, for example, the approximate one hour's worth I got last night because my swollen, itchy foot was bothering me.
The exercise:
Write two haiku that have something to do with: something swollen.
Like, for example, my right foot. Google tells me this is a normal amount of swelling. I still plan on finding that wasp tomorrow, bringing it back to life, and then murdering it again.
The exercise:
Write about: something that stings.
Like the wasp, for example, that stung the top of my right foot this evening. May it rest in pieces.
