some kind of plan

---------------------

A few days ago, we cleaned the cedar deck of the dock and applied stain.  The lake level is still somewhat high and we waited as long as possible to deploy the dock.  We have less than half of the dock installed and will finish the job in the next few days.

"Nooo.  This Neal's not crazy, believe me.  This is the way he always operates.  He's unpredictable.  he's got some kind of a plan.  We just haven't found it yet, that's all."

- the character Mathews, Highway Patrol chapter, from
Curtis White's novel "Memories of my Father Watching TV"
