Boy am I glad that car came. That was close enough to a snake that big! I don’t care if Aunt Jayne says black snakes don’t bite. I don’t much like the way she laughs when she says it. She is great, my Aunt Jayne is. Anyway, yesterday, I had gone to the rock mine and had gotten a few nice pieces. When I got back, Aunt Jayne and I sat on the back porch and ate dinner watching the sun set. Then I went up to take a bath, mining makes you dirty you know, and go to bed. I was really hot and dirty and sweaty and stinky. I love to take a bath in that big tub. It is so different from the one in the apartment back home. The water is cool and the big window opened with the breeze coming in. It’s up on the third floor, with a slanted ceiling.
