6/13

we have decamped for a night
to the countryside,
to the chateau of a colleague of my brother's
it is very close to amboise
where leonardo de vinci spent his last days.

the afternoon activity is archery;
chris is taking a nap
so it is left to me
to uphold our family's honor…
i am not super sporty,
but i do manage to consistently hit the target.
when it comes to shooting the "animals"
that have been placed around the property
i am ok with the badger,
but i draw the line at the wolf
and will not attempt the crocodile in the moat
least i loose an arrow trying
