This gull has been screeching all morning,
swooping down to the garbage bins
to peck at the spoils.
Jonathan?
Fly.

Still Downtown Anacortes:
My early walk took me past supply stores and cottages and then a private parking space-cum-garden where bundles of newspapers were stacked in rows to form the ‘boxes’ for raised beds !

The gardener told me that he was into his fourth season of spinach and kale and cherry tomatoes.

Genius.
Now, when I need fresh vegetables …

I have to find a supermarket.

The bear’s head in the window made me stop.

I looked up at the sign

and went in.

The shelves were brimming with boxes and a sign overhead read:

The owner saw me reading it and added,
“If we don’t have it, you probably don’t need it.”
I smiled and looked around the ceiling.
My eyes widened.

“Do you want to see out back?” he offered.
“Does it get better or worse,” I asked.
“Come!” He said and led me past the furnace

and through a door above which two signs were posted.

Too bad about the smoking.
