I had been sitting there inside the bar, watching my friends dance and drink with cute girls from who knows where, feeling more and more bad about walking to the door and seeing she was gone, wondering what the night must have been... not knowing it wasn't over. I was waiting on the deck, sitting on a table in the warm night air, trying to forget I was missing her jacket and her smile, knowing now that she was off with someone else alone. I wasn't really thinking much of anything about it all, just feeling like I didn't want to be feeling. She walked back and I caught the two figures hug before they reached the bar's deck where, along with their other friends, I was waiting for a ride home. A ride home I missed. When she asked me to take a walk with her, I knew I wouldn't be in that taxi back with my friends. It was all about the moment, she told me. We walked, in the dark, hand in hand on a long road. She showed me the cheese level of her thoughts and I didn't know what to make of it all. It was this awesome, special moment. And if I knew I should, I could just leave it at all... but if I could take it for more, I would right away. But we walked back and she gave me this smile and she seemed so completely there with me. In her car, she held my hand in that totally sweet way that made me want to kiss her fingers, while I felt the air blow past us with my other hand out the window. It was like a glimpse of what we could be and it was amazing... but I just can't trust it, because it was all about the moment.. and that moment? It is gone. So do I get more someday?

i've had moments at pelee. just the ferry ride itself is intoxicating, more so the intimacy of the pelee islander, not the jamaan. the long white roads, picking peaches, walking to the old lighthouse. picnics at the winery, the lullabye of lake erie's surf. what bar are you talking about?

my favorite moments would have to be driving on the long curving roads from the west docks to the east side of the island. I was talking about the pelee island hotel bar and that picnic table that's right before the winery and looks out over the three little rock formations in the lake.

have you been in that little souvenir shoppe with all the furry winter clothes in the back and the trinkets that seem to have been there forever?

The tournament was held at the east park campgrounds this year, it has been at the winery in the past, though. It's a pretty big thing.. the teams were from michigan... indiana... there was a st. louis team. I don't know. They were from around.
