[bodytext] => The Blue Jays woke us at dawn with their jeering. Calling to the cottage from weeping willows whose roots reached as far into the lake as onto the land. The water was cool green at its best and gray-black at its worst. Okauchee. Nothing else mattered. Not tangling weeds floating fish sinking rafts. Okauchee. It was all we ever knew or wanted of summer. At dusk we piled into the attic. Strewed across mattresses no longer wanted at home we listened to the bats chatter as it lulled us to sleep.
