Hunting Island State Park, June 25, 2013 A Walk at Night/Temple Music

Eleanor, Hanah, Sergay, Liza, Mathew and I walked out the Marsh Boardwalk Trail on this luminous night of the Super Moon.  We could hear the call of the Whipporwill and smell the salty tang of the pluff mud.

We went through a series of humacks to reach the dock where the marsh meets a tidal inlet. A raccoon, scurried under the dock as Sergay put in his fishing line. Immediately, he felt a pull and drew it in to find it severed, bait, hook, line and sinker.  The masked one had  grabbed it for himself.

Mathew hooked his shorts on his "trap" he had made by hand to catch fish.

We scurried back single file along the board walk under the stars gleaming and Saturn visible on the horizon.

From the house, the beautiful sound of temple music.  Inside the "Kitchen Supply Band" was in concert playing wine glasses with differing levels of water, pots and pans played on with wooden and metal sticks used for shishkabob and one Iphone.
