Next meeting:
• Monday, August 9, 2010 6:30 – 9:00 PM
• Assignment: Finish the story:
Terry’s mind was elsewhere as he/she walked toward the lake. Perhaps that’s why he/she didn’t notice the stranger leaning against the maple tree, a lit cigarette in his right hand and a worn metal pail at his feet. The man watched Terry as he/she approached the shore, fully dressed in a pair of jeans, light grey hoodie, and black tennis shoes. Hesitating for just a moment, Terry stood at the water’s edge before reaching into the pocket of her sweatshirt and retrieving something the stranger couldn’t quite make out. He/she seemed to draw the object to his/her lips and kiss it before squatting down and placing it, gently, in the water.
