Cat Running
“She was in the old garden shed at the time looking for a tool to use in leveling the rocky ledges into smoother, flatter shelves. She had found a small pickax and was about to leave when her eyes fell on something she’d seen so many times it had become almost invisible—a stack of dusty, cobweb-draped wooden panels. But now suddenly she put down the pickax, dashed out of the shed, ran to the house and down the hall to the living room. Sitting down on the floor in front of the bookcase, she pulle...d out a photo album and leafed through until she found what she was looking for. An old photo of a solemn little girl standing in front of an unusually large and fancy backyard playhouse.
The little girl was Ellen almost twenty years ago, and the playhouse had once stood in the Kinseys’ backyard. Father had built it for Ellen from a kit of partly assembled panels that had once been sold at Kinsey Hardware. When nailed together the panels formed an especially elegant playhouse with bright yellow shingled walls, a slanting roof, and fancy wooden trim that made it look like a fairy-tale cottage.MoreLess
