such a beautiful morning
Written by fredward on July 5th, 2005It’s been a great day.. even though I had to work from 4pm-2am. Lauren had a small gathering at her house and after a quick stop home to change out of my uniform I decided to pay her a visit. We sat around, watched nick at nite and I got tired of it and left.
I thought about going home but part of me didn’t want to call it a night just yet so I went to the Royce. Pokey and Eric were there. Talked about random events.. Lindsey Hamilton getting married (do what?!) The clock on the wall crept its way to four am and they left.
Around 5 it started to lighten up a bit outside. It was a hazy overcast from where it had been raining.. I decide to go to the river. I can safely say I have never seen the Ohio River look more beautiful (and for it to be beautiful at all it’s saying something)
A thick fog is in the air as I walk onto the boat docks. Rain is pelting the water causing a cascade of ripples. There is no other sound. There are no other people. If you stare across the bank or even at the water you quickly forget you’re in Owensboro and that this is a cheap boat ramp. You’re instantly transported to the shore of a lake.. It was that beautiful
