Hawks!

Speaking of the Bride, her mother owns a few properties. And that's all I want to say about that. (?)

No, actually, she has a few very nice houses and has been having me go along as her comrade-in-landlording to meet the prospective tenants and act as muscle should things get out of hand. I have a baseball bat with a nail through it and everything.

I was supposed to meet her at 11:45 to show a place but then her battery died and we rescheduled for 5:30. But before I got word of all this, I was already there, and, looking into the azure from her property's front step, way, way high in the sky I saw a little hawk circling and circling over downtown D_____! How odd! Like he was in the deep pineywoods or something. Wanted to warn him that any critters in the neighborhood that he might make a hundred-yard dive for would probably taste like they say "might could."
