My cousin once stole a small airplane and flew himself to South Dakota. He was 15.

No joke, I woke up from a dream where I was by a wooden boathouse looking at tracks of a boat in the lake (in dreams boats leave tracks in the lake) I was admiring their pattern.

This exercise makes so much sense the way you’ve illustrated it and I so enjoy meeting this young version of yourself both the version from an adult and your original memory, both are real!

Thanks for writing this great piece

Thanks, Adam! I love the visual of boats leaving tracks in the lake. That could make a lovely illustration.
