Covered Bridge
“YOU PROBABLY HEARD about how my father was run over by a streetcar. How he lay down on the streetcar tracks for a rest during a snowstorm. I never knew him because that happened when I was just a baby.
My mom died when I was born. I lived with Mrs. O’Driscoll. She was married to a distant cousin of my dad’s. I thought of her as my mother and I loved her. But I called her Mrs. O’Driscoll. It was a warm little joke we had between us.
And you probably heard about all that stuff that happened to me... at Glebe Collegiate and at the Uplands Emergency Shelter where we lived and about Easy Avenue and my job with Miss Collar-Cuff and the mysterious money and about Mr. Donald D. DonaldmcDonald and about O’Driscoll showing up from the War almost five years late.
And about the fight I had with Fleurette Featherstone Fitchell and how we made up after and went on a picnic with everybody.
But I definitely didn’t yet tell how I wound up on a little farm up the Gatineau at Mushrat Creek in charge of a covered bridge and what happened about the bridge.MoreLess
