River Horse
by Bruce Carlson · Fall 1999
About ten years ago, a travel book appeared in which the
author checked out our country by driving from coast to coast on the
back highways. Blue Highways, written by William Least Heat-Moon, was
very engaging.

Meditation #3 — Time on the Water
by Don N. Johnson · Summer 1999
I mark the passage of time, especially during the warmer months, by
boats. Others chart time by their travels, health crises, job growth or
change, family change, or any number of things. I remember the boats
I’m on during any season.

My Father's Boat
by David W. Kersten · Winter 1999
The boating season lies ahead. For me, it is a season of grace and
wonder as I’m privileged once again to return to the waters. And

my own resistance to grace. My father surprised me with a phone call
late last summer. Hemming and hawing, he finally said he would like to
give me his boat.
