They stare at each other for a timeless moment before the deer runs off, startled.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for sharing your anecdote (in the film and Stephen King's novel, Gordie doesn't tell his friends. The first time he mentions it to anyone else is when he writes it / narrates it in the movie).<BR/><BR/>Don't you think the new Islamic centre is a terrifically exciting building?

Not a 100 yards along the path across a narrow stream on the right was standing a heron, calmly blinking at me. MagicalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
