May 9: Backbone of the Great Fish, Crazy Day of Wind, Morel Hunting

A tourist sees the remains of Santiago's fish . . .

"What's that?" she asked a waiter and pointed to the long backbone of the great fish that was now just garbage waiting to go out with the tide.

A crazy day of wind in my little corner of the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  The wind was so strong, it knocked out the power of the library where I work.  We had to shut the building down.  I moved a morel hunting program I had scheduled for the evening to the local children's museum.  Surprisingly, 25 people still showed up.

Saint Marty's koan for the night:  even garbage has a good story.
