blog title



if you were wondering about the title of my blog it is from one of my favorite books of all time A River Runs Through It.

it is a beautiful story,
the two brothers in the book remind me a lot of my brother and i,
we have a beautiful story.

here are a few lines and you will know what i am talking about:

it is those we live with and love and should know who elude us...

now nearly all those i loved and did not understand when i was young are dead, but i still reach out to them...

eventually, all things merge into one, and a river runs through it. the river was cut by the world's great flood and runs over rocks from the basement of time. on some of the rocks are timeless raindrops. under the rocks are the words, and some of the words are theirs.

i am haunted by waters.

Wow, what inspired your thinking about that story?? lol, which do you like better, book or movie?

And yes, beneath the rocks, lies the word . . .

PS, don't ever be late for church, work, or fishing

Welcome to the bloggery.

Bagen, you need to stop talking about fishing. We need to streach some lip together...Soon.

We have much to talk about and knee deep in a river dosen't sound like a bad place to do it.

This is one of my favorite books. Norman Maclean had a way with prose which reminds me, for whatever reason, of Stephen Crane and Zora Neal Hurston. Quite an unlikely grouping of authors. All I can atttibute the similarities to is how their words make me think and feel. Love it.
