    a few years ago i drove to the house where i grew up and there was a live in nanny out front waiting for a kid to get off the bus, home from school, and soon along came the boy and i said to him when i was your age i lived in your house and went to your school. i think i scared the kid.

    anne hutchinson's bones were never found, at least that's what they told us. i spent many hours or many years digging and digging in "the digging spot" my parents were wise enough to give me, looking for those bones. also i was looking for china which was supposed to be right there on the other side of the earth so if i dug enough...well i never found it either but i developed a love of dirt in my fingernails and planted my first garden in that same spot. i grew tomatoes, and i also planted some other seeds, which, uh...i won't mention what they were on here but the guy behind us who had ONE GREAT GARDEN would often stop by in puzzled amazement and look at my plants and say, no tomatoes yet, huh, and i would respond, yeah, no tomatoes....there never would be tomatoes from those seeds...that happened years later but the amateur archeological dig was definitely inspired by the name of our elementary school and took place while i was a student there. oh love of innocence!
