  1. I love the picture, Hannah! Have to think about this one, since it reminds me of our trip to Cape Cod last summer.

  3. PART 3

    When she returns a man is sitting on her bench. She pulls in her bicycle.
    “You’ve got one of my buoys,” he shouts.
    She stops. “I do?”
    “Yes, you’ve got a buoy of mine,” he says.
    She parks her bicycle and heads for the entrance of the shed.
    “I’m so sorry but you’ve got to wait,” she says. “I’ll only be a minute.”
    He hears the unmistakably sound of somebody peeing. He raises his eyebrows when he hears she flushes since that is the unmistakable sound of a toilet. He even hears she’s washing her hands before she’s right out here in front of him.
    “I didn’t know that you had a toilet,” he says.
    “Of course I have a toilet,” she says, “don’t you?”
    “Of course I have,” he says smiling, “only I didn’t think that your small shed could contain one.”
    She sits down besides him.
    “There’re three basic rules for my accommodation and they are: A waterproof roof, a dry cellar and a functional toilet,” she says.
    “Good rules,” he says, “only I came out here because I heard you’ve got one of my buoys.”
    “Yes?” she says.
    “Number 384,” he says, “that’s me.”
    “Oh,” she says, “why didn’t you just take it? I pick up a lot of drifted buoys from the beach.”
    “We don’t do things that way over here,” he says.
