Shrimp Burger
Yesterday during "nap time" Katherine looked up from her book to ask me what I was thinking. She said I had a serious expression on my face. I looked pensive. Her query snapped me to attention. I had been tettering on a horizon of thought, balanced precariously at the edge of this world and my considerations for the near future. In particular, what our afternoon plans should be, on this, our fourth day of vacation. Should we go for a swim or visit the lighthouse on Hunting Island? Maybe we could do both? Would that be too ambitious? But the real question in my mind was how to get back to the Shrimp Shack in Frogmore, SC, so our conversation went something like this:
Katherine: "What are you thinking?"
Me: (after a long, thoughtful pause) "Shrimp Burger."
There's plenty to say about our vacation this week, but right now I'll leave it at that. Two words, short and sweet, to sum up a terrific week. Our summer vacation is shrimp burger.
