The Mcgillicuddy book of Personal Records (2011)
“So throw off the bowlines. Sail away from the safe harbor. Catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. Discover.
Mark Twain “So what’ll you give me if I do it?” asked Rhonda, snatching the folded note to Lee’s teacher from his hand. Lee pulled the Mars Bar from one of his overstuffed pockets. Rhonda narrowed her eyes. “What are you up to?” she asked, “and what’s that?” She was pointing to the margarine container hanging from his belt on a string.
Lee waved the candy bar in front of her... face. “No questions. Either do it or don’t. What’ll it be?” Rhonda shook her head and grabbed the bar from his hand. Lee let the screen door slam and took off down Rhonda’s front steps.
He whistled for Santiago, who leapt over the fence and joined Lee, a frenzied blur of flying slobber, lunatic tail whacking, and over-excited piddling. Santiago always seemed able to sense a good adventure when it was about to happen. “Calm down, girl,” said Lee, struggling to get the leash attached to Santiago’s collar.MoreLess
