A place for contemplation.

Contemplation

My dad was telling me a story about a snake he found under the dock while he was contemplating (his words). I was more fascinated (and tickled) by this contemplation business than I was the snake. You see... my parents live on a small lake and they recently had a two-tiered dock built. We use the dock to sun ourselves on the weekends, fish and watch the sunset. We use the rafters under the dock to store the kayak - and apparently my dad also uses this space to spy on fish while he contemplates. Unless a snake is disturbing his flow, that is.

That is some kind of zen magic right there. I would take meditation lessons from your dad in a heartbeat.
