Friday night out

October evening along a gravel road 
Crawford Count Kansas


Indian summer evening, the lake as smooth as glass. A Heddon Big Hopper that the young bass are crazy for. Coots. Blue Heron. Sandwiches and quiet.  Thoughts of my mother who recently passed. My wife working a puzzle book, looks up an says "Its just beautiful here isn't it?" The road home at dusk. Three scissor tail fly catchers on an power line, I thought they would have  moved on by now. The shadows of deer in the fading light.
