Riding bikes around Minneapolis, stumbling across the mill ruins. After, we head west into the city and mingle amongst the Friday night party crowd. People act like they had never seen a bike before.
When I was little looking out the window of the car, the world was exciting.
I can't see the road, beacuse I am too small. I love driving west during dusk, not knowing west but knowing that the direction of Grandma's for dinner meant beauty. I see the tallest trees, and the hills dip and loop on the rim of the window sill. Truck drivers are friends and spotting water towers is a competition.
I was never able to sleep in the car.
I'd imagine myself out there as the beats and frames shot through my mind, melting into everything.
First whole year in New York City coming up (presumably). I was thinking about where I was last year on this same date, and it seems infinitely long ago.
