the screaming girl

Lake Wisconsin
Slow down
Baby, now you’re moving way too fast
You gotta gimme little loving
gimme little loving
Ow, if you want our love to last

Of course you can’t really make it out in this picture, but she’s there. I stopped for a moment to contemplate the day when a high powered boat went racing by. Nothing unusual about that today, they were out by the dozens. But as the boat passed I could hear a girls voice. “SLOW DOWN! SLOW DOWN!” The poor kid was being towed on one of those fancy inflatable rafts behind the boat. By the looks of it, the raft was only actually touching the water on occasion. It looked more like a bright yellow hovercraft. Sitting on top was a young girl maybe 8-10 years old screaming for the people towing her to slow down. Of course as you can guess, they couldn’t hear her. The boat went screaming on into the distance, and so for that matter did the screaming girl. You gotta wonder what that experience will do for her appreciation of water sports!?
