I walked up my road, a quiet and long cul de sac, then took the horse path through the veld and on to the tarmac of the isolated provincial road that snakes around the back of town.
Then, briskly, while texting Lee in the dark, I followed the road through the alien eucalyptus trees that I love so much, turned right at the only stop, and climbed the hill past the hospital up until where the tar peters out.
That's when I got down on my knees and gave thanks for the full moon.
