My writing reminds me of where I've been, who I've shared my journey with, and where I am going.

Mid-60s LSU Lakes
It had rained hard for several days, and the low bridges were beginning to flood. I had been catching fish in a pan as they were swept across the bridges. My 48’ Willis Jeep had no doors or top, I overturned a curve; the jeep went into a spin that sent the jeep and me into the lake. A wrecker pulled the jeep out, and on Saturday it started up after we drained and replaced all the fluids. My dad sat in the driver’s seat way too long, finally he turned and asked, “Billy what did you learn from all this?” I answered way too quickly, “Not to drive in rain?” He got out of the jeep, grabbed me in a bear hug, “you could have been killed, but there is a greater power than your stupidity at work in our lives!”
