This River Is Wild

We're both travelers, although she has gone further than I have. And from her travels, she brings back unusual hats to wear when she rides horses across the Egyptian desert.
True story, I couldn't make that up.
It's been years since I have seen the Mississippi River and although it is no exotic desert it still holds a bit of magic. I forget how tiny it can make one feel; how much it reminds me of a younger self- still fascinated with that myth.
