KEN.JY LAKE NOTES
Around on the north side of our
house therers a spot of ground that doesn’t
thaw during the day now and off on top
of the Wrangells are snow clouds spurning
off the peaks early in the dawn, evidence
of screaming winds at those elevations,
a tail end of the storms from the Gulf
that the lower country on the plateau
here never feels*
The aspen branches are just stark
black, fingers against the night sky out
side the window, wood smoke from the
barrel stove and popcorn in the evenings
are homestead events new*
A young fellow by the name of Jadel
Grimm has decided that this plateau holds
part and maybe most of his future* He’s
settled across the road from the Helkem
brothers about 19 mile on the Edgerton.
And so it goes, by blocks and squares
the pools of human endeavor gradually
seep across this wide, wide land. Still
there are endless -vista fs of virgin
ground, and endless realms of opportunity,
not for all, or eve-n a* majority maybe,»
but they are here
Piers and abutments of' concrete are
appearing on the canyon walls at Liberty
Falls now and the big, red, graceful
arches of ponderous steel lie stacked a
short distance off for the new bridge.
Long rows of new-ended wood are a
building at each homestead these days and
shopping lists are compared by the better
halves before the fall trip for the winters
grub supply takes place. Some local rigs
leave the sharp-cut track of new snow
tires in my lane when they come to visit
and the mail truck deposits big square
packages of winter clothes from the mail
order sources along the road.
We’ve had some of the political
hopefuls through the hustings lately,
something I’m not used to in the South
48| a chance for the direct give and take
around the kitchen table of the man you’ve
asked to vote for, I like that!
I sure hope my ice skate order comes
soon, the other necessary part of an even
ing skating party ought to glitter across
-l
Kenny Lake one of these mornings and
decide to stay* Must see about stashing
some dry wood close by the shore for a
weiner roast too*
The snow shoe rabbits have been
tramping in the flour barrel around here,
their legs up to their .hocks - if that’s
what elbows are on a rabbit - are white
as snow; strange doin’s these wild
creatures participate in as the seasons
change * <•
