...and sometimes, the island is marooned on you.

[c9]

"The island, about the size of a football field, made a beeline for Mr. Renna's house - crushing his three-foot chain-link fence, swamping his red-blue-and-purple flagstone patio, wrecking his dock, flooding his shed, hobbling his weeping willow, and drowning the oregano, cilantro, tomatoes and peppers in his garden. Then, with an insouciant shrug, it came to a standstill in Mr. Renna's backyard, an interloper squatting in stubborn silence."

...and then it bullied his children, ran over his dog, and slept with his wife.

Springfield is about 45 minutes away from where I am now, I wonder if I can find that place. ;)
