Dawson William Jensen is shown on our July cover running across an Oklahoma field proudly bearing ‘Old Glory’, the beautiful American flag that has been a symbol of freedom and hard work since its creation in 1777. According to relatives, Betsy Ross, a Philadelphia seamstress, carefully sewed the first version of the stars and stripes, which of course had only 13 stars arranged in a circle to designate the 13 colonies. Dawson, age 5, is the son of Tim and Amanda Jensen.

July 4th…what does it mean to you? For some it means Independence Day, when the United States became independent from Great Britain by signing the Declaration of Independence. For others, it means a day off from work. And for some it means family reunion time, lake time, BBQ cookout times, and for others it is a birthday or an anniversary. And that is one meaning for me.

We searched for and were able to find a place that sold flag stickers and small flags in bulk. I called each elementary school in Cushing to get a head count for every class. Brian and I then made up little Ziploc flag bags for each student which contained stickers, erasers, and pencils with the American flag on them. He then cut little strips of wood to become flag holders and we delivered those to almost every business in Cushing as well. After Brian passed away in 2019, I needed to go and take care of some business and as I entered the door, I noticed that they had the same flag on their counter that we had given them 19 years ago! Made my heart feel good! Have a safe and Happy 4th of July, and I’ll have a blessed anniversary remembering my very patriotic husband, Brian D. Evans.

My husband and I married on July 4. He chose that day because he knew he would never forget our wedding anniversary. I say it was because there would always be fireworks on our anniversary! Regardless of what it means to you personally, for an American, that day remains a day that we remember to be thankful for the freedoms our nation has enjoyed down through the years. Which brings me back to my husband, Brian. He was a very patriotic man, partly because his dad was the person in charge of the Oklahoma National Guard in Cushing, OK for 23 years. Brian grew up running the halls of the armory where he learned what it means to be patriotic.

In the days following 9/11, there were many, many patriotic photos and posters floating through the internet and this inspired my husband to show his own version of patriotism.

THE AMERICAN FLAG

by ALLISON ELDREDGE

June 14th is Flag Day in America. July 4th is Independence Day. These two National Holidays are meant to celebrate America, but they aren’t the same type of celebration. Flag Day. I have never ever celebrated Flag Day. It has always just been another day on the calendar. I’m not really sure I understood the importance of Flag Day until I started reading about the history of the flag. Independence Day. This day is commonly celebrated with cookouts and fireworks and watermelon. Yum! During my research, I learned that flags are some of the oldest symbols in the world. Flags have been used to announce what allegiance a ship or a knight was under. Flags have been used to identify the need of rescue or surrender. Throughout the world, each country has a flag; and in America, each state has a flag and even some cities have their own flag. Our America Flag has had a very unique road to get to the flag that we all see flying on flag poles around the OKLA HOMA CORRID OR M AGAZI NE / J U LY 2 0 2 2 6

county. And it all started with a little revolution. In the 1760s, the American colonies decided that they didn’t want to be under British rule any longer. They fought the Revolutionary War from 1775 to 1783. In 1776, America declared their Independence. On June 14, 1777 in Philadelphia, it was decided that America would have her own flag and it would include 13 red and white stripes (one stripe for each state) and 13 white stars (again, one for each state) on blue cannon (the background for the stars). Betsy Ross is credited with sewing the First American Flag. During the War of 1812, our flag started being called “The Star Spangled Banner” based on a poem penned by Frances Scott Key. He wrote the poem (which would become our national anthem) after watching the Battle at Fort McHenry. At that time in history there were 15 stripes and 15 stars because two states had been added in the years following 1777.

Every time a state was added to the union, the flag received another stripe and another star until 1818. That year a law was passed to limit the stripes back to 13 for the original 13 colonies. Every state added would still add a star. When a state is added to the union, the following Flag Day, June 14th, is when the new flag is released with the additional star added to the cannon. Alaska and Hawaii were the last two states added in 1959. In 1824, the flag received another nickname that at the time would have been a personal nickname for it, but it became famous and it still used to this day. It was called “Old Glory”. William Driver, a sea captain, received a flag sewn by his mother for his 21st birthday. He called it “Old Glory” and sailed around the world twice with it at his ship’s mast. In September 1892, the Pledge of Allegiance was first printed. As it was adopted, a flag code was created that states that we are to face the flag and place our right hand over our heart as we recite the Pledge. In 1949, by an Act of Congress June 14th became a National Holiday….Flag Day. Congress has also created the US Flag Code. Some rules for the American Flag include: If the flag is flown outdoors it must be taken down at night unless there are lights set up to shine on it; if it raining or snowing, the flag must come down unless it is waterproof; one must hoist the flag briskly and lower it slowly and smoothly; never let the flag touch the ground; do not fly a dirty or worn out flag; and only fly the flag upside down if you are in danger. Some of the unusual places the American flag has been flown through the years are on the moon in 1969, on Mount Everest in 1962, and at the North Pole in 1909. Since 1777, the American Flag design has been evolving; from the original 13 stripes and stars to the current 13 stripes and 50 stars. Along the way many varieties have been made. Any person creating their own flag could add their own touch to it. Flags are on display as having extra stripes, an eagle, and stars in various patterns such as a sunburst, and much more. All these variations created a spontaneous and profound form of American Folk Art. A great resource to see pictures of these variations is in the book “American Flag: Designs for a Young Nation” by Nancy Druckman. The oldest flag is in Bennington, Vermont Museum. It is believed to be the first Stars and Stripes used by American Land Troops; flown over the military stores at Bennington in 1777. This year, as we celebrate America’s Independence Day, don’t forget to stop long enough to appreciate the flag and the freedom that we can enjoy in the United States. n

THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE: I Pledge Allegiance to the Flag of the United States of America and to the Republic for which it stands, One Nation under God, indivisible with Liberty and Justice for All.

THE STAR-SPANGLED BANNER: O say, can you see By the dawn’s early light What so proudly we hail’d At the twilight’s last gleaming? Whose broad stripes and bright stars Through the perilous fight O’er the ramparts we watch’d Were so gallantly streaming? And the rocket’s red glare The bombs bursting in air Gave proof through night That our flag was still there O say, does that star-spangled banner yet wave O’er the land of the free And the home of the brave?

HAPPY INDEPENDENCE DAY AMERICA!

82nd ANNUAL CHANDLER, OK OPEN RODEO 82 trips around the sun and we are back for the Annual Chandler Open Rodeo July 29th & 30th. Summer’s biggest event in Lincoln County will be an action packed weekend for the entire family. The annual event is hosted by the Chandler Round Up Club. With history dating back to 1940, on what was once the County Fairgrounds in an arena built out of rail road ties and hog wire, has transformed to the hot spot for summer Rodeo contestants and fans. Over the years the club has produced a variety of events from IPRA rodeos, youth rodeos, play days, and state high school rodeo finals. While much has changed over the years, the annual open rodeo at the end of July has become a summer time staple. Spectators from all over come to watch top-notch contestants compete for prize money in Bareback Riding, Ranch Bronc Riding, Tie Down Roping, Barrel Racing, Ladies Breakaway Roping, Team Roping and Bull Riding. Athletes range from young to old, from professional cowboys across the United States to hometown heroes ready to shine under the arena lights. Chandler’s

BRING THE FAMILY AND ENJOY THE RODEO location in the heart of Oklahoma makes it and ideal attraction, but it’s the quality of competition, added money and the coveted spurs that bring these athletes back year after year. The rodeo also provides an opportunity for the youngest of competitors in the Jr. Barrels 15 & Under as well as the nightly calf scramble. Not all the focus is on the rodeo events. A fan favorite is the Baby Bale Sprint. It’s a race by teams of 3 (typically made up of local businesses) pushing a 600 lb hay bale across the finish line to raise money for local charities. Last year BancFirst won the women’s division and Highland Dairy won the men’s division. Donations were sent to the Helping Hands Foundation and the Blaklyn Ellrick Fund. Come out and enjoy the fun. Queen contestants will have advance tickets for sale. If unable to find a Rodeo Queen contestant, contact Chandler Roundup Club member Mike Bendele with United Country Real Estate at 405-258-0408.

by PAUL RAGLE

I directed church camp for 4th & 5th graders earlier this summer and served as a counselor at a middle school age church camp. Camp has long been important to me. I was as an 8th grader at church camp when I first began to discern the Holy One’s call to serve in ministry. I want to share a snapshot of something amazing that happened to change a young person’s life this summer at church camp. (I’ve changed the camper’s name to protect her identity.) Everything we do at camp is curriculum: worship, Bible study, recreation, eating, sleeping. Even camp cleanup is a part of the curriculum. We work diligently to create a community where young people may experience the Holy One and where we practice loving others. Small groups ministry is integral to this work. Sally was a member of my small group. From the very first she began verbally attacking others in the small group. That also included me. During our first session, Sally told the group she didn’t like me because I reminded her of her grandfather. My laugh, Sally said, was fake and she told everyone she didn’t want to be around me. Nobody serves as a pastor for 45 years without encountering people who don’t like them. I invited her to share more about her feelings. Under her breath Sally shared that her grandpa had

OKLAHOMA CORRID O R M AGAZI NE / J U LY 2 0 2 2 20

required her to read the Bible and pray for hours at a time as a punishment. She had no more to say about it until we were studying the story of Ruth and Naomi. Naomi told the people of Bethlehem not to call her “Naomi” but instead “Mara,” because the Almighty had left her empty and broken. I invited the small group to share about times of emptiness and bitterness in their lives. The young people spoke about losing grandparents, pets, and other loved ones. One young man shared how difficult it was to loose his friends when his family moved from Colorado. Sally shared how difficult it was for her to go to court to testify about abuse she received from her grandfather. Our group was filled with a deep sense of sadness at all that had been shared. With many tears we gathered in a prayer circle to lift each person’s sadness to the Holy One. Like Naomi, who courageously shared her sorrow with her friends, these campers shared their pain and darkness. At the end of camp, Sally gave me a timid hug, stuffing a note into my hand. She thanked me for my patience and for the listening ear. Sally wrote that she had truly felt the healing hand of the Holy One. May there always be a loving, patient, listening ear for little ones who need a touch of healing from the Holy One.n

Okemah’s 25th Annual

WOODY GUTHRIE FESTIVAL The 25th annual Woody Guthrie Festival in Woody’s hometown of Okemah is set to take place on July 13-17 this year. I was there for the inaugural event as a spectator and have returned for portions of it every year since. I’m lucky enough to return again this year as a performer. Woody is a folk hero to many, a ne’er do well by his detractors. Always speaking on the side of the poor and disenfranchised throughout the Great Depression, he wrote, sang and traveled the country in his quest to give words to the world he saw around him. Perhaps best known for writing ‘This Land is Your Land’, he also wrote hundreds of other songs portraying the state of the country in one its darkest periods. He wrote newspaper columns, drew cartoons, wrote children’s songs, humorous songs, songs of love and labor. The Woody Guthrie Center in Tulsa houses a treasure trove of his life’s work. He served as inspiration for talents such as Bob Dylan and many other of his contemporaries. Fittingly, the Bob Dylan Center has opened in the same block as the Woody Guthrie Center. Both are jewels in downtown Tulsa’s crown. Woody died in 1967 of Huntington’s disease, a slow acting, devastating neurological disease. He was only 55. His son Arlo later became popular as a counterculture icon known for his song and movie of the same name Alice’s Restaurant. Arlo and his family have often participated in the festival and this year some will return to perform. Those returning this year to perform are Cathy and Sarah Lee Guthrie (The Guthrie Girls) as well as Woody’s great grandson Krishna Guthrie, great granddaughter Serana and granddaughter, Annie. Woody’s daughter Nora had a career as a dancer studying with the Martha Graham Dance Company. After OKLAHOMA CORRID O R M AGAZI NE / J U LY 2 0 2 2 22

retiring from the stage she began working with her father’s voluminous material, gathering, protecting and preserving them in archival form. She has overseen others in work to set many of Woody’s remaining poems to song. And she had a big part in moving Woody’s archives to Tulsa.

Voices rendering their observations and interpretations of life events in sometimes blunt, sometimes brutal, often wistful visions leaning toward hope. Poets, like songwriters, often dance along the edge of what is and what isn’t, showing us what life can become. And I find the fact that so many Okies continue to study, write and render our ordinary language into often magical events, a most encouraging bright spot in this world of ours. Poets have been a part of this festival for some time. I wasn’t aware of that until recent years. And as I’ve become connected to Oklahoma poets through the last few years of Sharon Martin’s Second Sunday poetry readings at Drumright’s Tidewater Winery, I’ve become more aware and awake to this aspect of the event. The ‘Woody Poets’ will appear at the Okema History Center in downtown Okemah on Saturday from 11-1. The list of scheduled poets is as follows: Host: Paul Juhasz, Musical Accompaniment by David Amram, Poets Alan Gann, Markham Johnson, Jack Hays, Linda Neal Reising, Quinn Carver Johnson, Bill McCloud, Travis Lovin, Tom Murphy, Rodney Wilhite, Chrislyn Rose Lawrence, Regina McLemore, Catherine Katey Johnson, Tina Baker, and Sharon Edge Martin. David Amram A regular, favorite, featured performer, David Amram, a younger contemporary of Woody’s crowd back in their New York days, will be in attendance again this year. He’s 92, looks twenty years younger and has a smile and presence, I swear that can calm the fiercest of beating hearts. He is a living legend in many facets of music. He’s worked with Aaron Copland, Wynton Marsallis, Theolonius Monk, Jack Kerouac, Arlo Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, Willie Nelson and Judy Collins among dozens of others. He’s also written scores for several movies and has performed as conductor, composer, arranger of orchestral,

chamber, and choral works, many with jazz flavorings. He plays piano, French horn, Spanish guitar, and pennywhistle, and sings. In 1966 Leonard Bernstein chose Amram as the New York Philharmonic’s first composer-in-residence. Amram will make several appearances throughout the week and will be on the Pastures of Plenty stage at 11 p.m. Thursday night. The Wednesday night kick off, ‘A Tribute in Song’ at the Crystal Theater, a ticketed event, is a tribute to the music of Bob Childers and Jimmy LaFave, two standout Oklahoma singer/songwriters who were influenced by Woody and who in turn influenced a generation of music lovers with their songs, stories and generous hearts in the time they spent here on Earth. Childers died in 2008, and LaFave passed away in 2017. The event continues through the rest of the week culminating at noon on Sunday at the Crystal Theater with this annual ‘Hoot for Huntington’s’ a fundraiser with proceeds benefitting the search for a cure of the disease is hosted by Terry Buffalo Ware and the house band. The Crystal Theater, Lou’s Rocky Road Tavern and the Bound for Glory stage will be day time venues. The Pastures of Plenty main event stage under the water tower on the east edge of town will be the main stage and evening venue. The downtown History Center, the main check in point and merchandise area, will also serve as the venue for the poetry reading and educational events on Friday and Saturday. On Saturday there’s a special Children’s Music Festival from 10:00 a.m. - 2:00 p.m. in Okemah’s City Park just south of downtown. Paid daily attendance provides a wristband for entry into all venues including the evening performances at the Pastures of Plenty. The events at the History Center and Lou’s Rocky Road Tavern do not require a wrist band. The Sunday ‘Hoot for Huntington’s’ is free admission. This is a great event and a good chance to get out and meet a lot of different people and hear lots of different musical views. I am fortunate to be a part of it. Maybe I’ll see you there!

A Window into

PATRIOTISM IN OUR COMMUNITIES July is one of those spectacular months for making memories. The hot outdoor activities, fireflies, blackberries, barbeques, water play, family events, and of course patriotism. by ALANA OWEN I started my quest for ideas with my own father and his military experience. I never really thought of myself as being in a military family. However, I soon began to change my perspective considering my father and stepfather were both in the service, as was one of my favorite uncles. I myself lived the military lifestyle during the years my ex-husband was in the Navy. My father was in the Korean war and reached Korea in 1953. He was in college playing baseball and his coach tried to talk him into deferring the draft so he could keep playing baseball. In my father’s words, “I didn’t think of it as an option, but rather a duty.” He explained that everyone was going, and he was able to be a translator in the Army for the Puerto Ricans since Spanish was his first language. He did spend some time on the front lines, and as a result, lost some of his ability to hear. To this day, as is very typical for many war veterans, he does not speak much about the times he spent in the war. Later he went on to play minor league baseball for the Dodgers, and was a facilitator for school needs for American employees of Standard Oil while working in Venezuela. He retired as an Assistant Superintendent of Public Instruction after teaching school and working as a principal in San Jose, California. We all have those proud stories of our dads, many of whom did serve in the military during chaotic times. John Morrison shared the story of his father with me. Clarence (Jack) W. Morrison was born in Kansas in 1917. He served in the military from 1938 to 1948. Jack’s father, John’s grandfather, was an oil contractor and did not want his son to end up in the same industry. Jack’s father wanted his son to be a pharmacist and emphasized the need for college, so he went on to college after high school and his dad paid for all the basic necessities. Jack asked his dad one day for $2.00 to spend on just having fun with friends. His father asked him what he wanted to with it, to which Jack replied, “Maybe a beer and some cigarettes.” OKLAHO MA CORRID O R M AGAZI NE / J U LY 2 0 2 2 24

Clarence (Jack) W. Morrison poses for a photo opportunity while stationed in France in 1944. (Inset: Morrison upon graduation from Officer’s Candidate School in Fort Bragg, NC in 1942) PHOTOS PROVIDED by John Morrison Jack’s father mailed him a carton of cigarettes and soon after, Jack decided he would rather just go to work and quit college. During the interview with John, he chuckled over his father’s decision to leave college following the $2.00 incident. John said his father’s response to own his decision to become an architect was, “You cannot draw, I always thought you would be a writer.” When Jack enlisted in the Army, he was given an aptitude test and was sent to Officers’ Candidate

School. Following school he became a Lieutenant in the Coast Artillery Corps, 461st AAA Battalion, Battery C. One of John’s favorite stories remembering his father was his arrival at Omaha Beach, June 6, 1944, on what is referred to as D-Day. The crew’s landing gear was sunk before reaching the shore, however, his outfit made it back to England only to return June 13, 1944 successfully landing on the beach. John described his father as an understanding man who would give advice to try to help him make better decisions, stating, “Then he would just drop the issue once his peace was said.” John said he misses all the conversations he had with his father prior to his death in 2001 after a bout with cancer. John would visit his father’s home after work, and according to John, Jack would open up the garage to happy hour from 4:30 p.m. to 5:15 p.m., so he knew he had to get there during that time if he planned to partake in a drink and a story. John said it was in those final years that his dad finally opened up and would sit around sharing his military stories. One year on the 4th of July while sharing the story of the day, he stood next to his father while the Blue Angels flew overhead. John choked up recalling his father’s presence while watching him stand at attention to the aircraft. “I could tell he was reflecting and feeling grateful for the life he made with his family and his country, a proud man who never complained about his hardships – it was just who he was.” When discussing Veterans, is important to put into perspective the younger generations who have lived the war experience while supporting their country. Jacob Walker served in the Army from 2010 to 2015. Jacob grew up in a military family. His father was in the Navy, both grandfathers were in the service, as well as many close cousins, and his great-grandfather was in the United States Marine Corps. Jacob said he always wanted to go into the service as a child and his family was very supportive of his decision. Jacob went to basic training in Georgia and later was sent to Afghanistan during Operation Enduring Freedom in 2012. While in the service, Jacob was sent to Germany, Poland, Ireland, Afghanistan, Lithuania, and a few other small countries. He described the worst part of his service time as the time being away from the people he is close to and not knowing for certain if he would be coming home to be with them again. Jacob shared a military story with me about a parachute mishap during a field training exercise. He was carrying his rifle and radio communications when his parachute became tangled in his helmet while landing. Jacob said he is very grateful that the incident did not take his life. Similarly he is thankful for other military

Jacob Walker poses for division photos for the 82nd Airborne Division at Ft. Bragg, NC in 2011. PHOTO PROVIDED by Jacob Walker experiences he had. I asked Jacob if he took skills with him from military life that he can use in his life as a civilian. He said he knew very little about technology before enlisting, but while in the Army he learned about Information Technology Systems and computer networking. When Jacob returned to civilian life, he described a stressful time of readjusting to a slower pace. “In the service, every moment of your time is structured and when you return it seems there is a void.” Jacob said his family was very supportive when he returned and he was able to move onto some property and into a home his grandparents own. In summary Jacob told me, “It was a good experience. I grew up fast and had my eyes opened to a world outside of myself, and figured out that people are really the same no matter where you are. We all just want to live a good life.” Happy July all! I hope you enjoy your summer and are living the good life in this great state in which we all reside. n

THANK YOU Jack and Jacob for serving this great nation!

DELILAH’SDILEMMAS “Eli didn’t, hasn’t said anything about a wedding date since you all got back. And before you all left, he was so adamant about a date being set. Before Lizzy came into the picture... ...Dooby, you don’t think he’s changed his mind, do you?” Delilah exclaimed. Having just accused Delilah of being easily distracted, and his point proven when she abruptly changed the subject from Eli’s daughter, Lizzy, to Eli’s previous obsession for marriage, Dooby grinned and shook his head at Delilah. “Oh, yeah,” Dooby said. “Obviously.” Delilah gasped. “Girl, have you done lost yo mind?” Dooby said with exasperation. “Of course he hasn’t changed his mind. To quote you, ‘something came up.’” Delilah backhanded Dooby’s arm. “Not funny,” she said. “Actually, it was kind of funny,” Dooby said with a chuckle. “The look on your face. Reminds me of the look on your face when . . .” Dooby broke into hearty laughter, pointing at Delilah and mumbling incomprehensibly about a humiliating incident that occurred years previously that Delilah had hoped, nay, prayed had been wiped from the memory of every living human who had witnessed or heard about it. Delilah’s eyes narrowed as she stood with her arms crossed across her chest, tapping her foot, waiting for Dooby’s hysterics to subside. Meanwhile, the three youngsters stood with their arms perched on the top rung of the metal corral panel, while Eli tended to inventorying supplies in the stable. Lizzy had already been “introduced” to Last Tempest, Stormy Mae, and their mother, Mae’s Thunder upon her first visit to the ranch days earlier. “So, that’s Tippy,” Joel said, pointing to an eightyear-old, iron gray mare inside the corral. “And that bay gelding next to her with the black tale and OKLAHO MA CORRID O R M AGAZI NE / J U LY 2 0 2 2 26

mane is Darby.” “I don’t know what that means,” Lizzy said with little enthusiasm. “Well, bay is a term used that describes the color, and gelding is a castrated male equine,” Damon interjected proudly. “Oh, gaw!” Lizzy wailed. “Why would they do that? That’s like . . . horrible.” “No, it’s just that it makes them calmer and better behaved,” Damon said. “Hamlet’s Shadow and Henry’s Last Hoorah are stallions,” Joel said. “They’re too wild and unpredictable for riding. Well, Eli and Gus will ride them sometimes, but not often.” “Who’s Gus?” Lizzy and Damon asked in unison. “He was the ranch foreman here,” Joel said. “But he moved to Dallas a couple months ago.” “Which one is Hamlet’s Shadow?” Lizzy asked, as she looked around. “Hamlet’s Shadow is the black stallion sequestered up on the northwest twenty,” Joel said, pointing to his right behind the garage. “We have to keep the two stallions separated. They fight.” What about those horses down by the pond?” Lizzy asked, tuning around and walking across the gravel lane. “Oh. Okay,” Joel said, scampering after her. “Captain Baronius is a six-year-old, bay gelding. You see how he looks similar to Darby but he’s just a little darker?” Lizzy nodded. “Bronte is a palomino colt,” Joel said. “You know what palomino is, right?” Damon asked, catching up with Joel and Lizzy. “That’s like, the really pale colored one with like, the white mane and tale?” Lizzy questioned, dully.

“Right,” Damon said excitedly. “And Lucky Penny is a two-year-old sorrel filly,” Joel continued, with a look of derision aimed at the fella he felt was interrupting his Lizzy time. “She looks sort of like the palomino,” Lizzy said. “The sorrel is more of a copper color,” Eli interjected, as he stepped up behind the three youngsters. Lizzy beamed at Eli and giggled. “I don’t know how you all, like, keep it straight.” Eli smiled. “No different than learning your crayon colors when you’re little,” he said. “You kids ready to go back to the house?” “Sure,” Lizzy said. “I probably need to get settled in, anyway.” Damon and Joel exchanged disappointed looks as they fell in behind Eli and Lizzy. Once they were in the house, aware that he was not likely going to get any one-on-one time with Lizzy, Damon said goodbye. As he was going out the door, he was met by Karon coming in. She was fit to be tied. Eli, Joel, and Lizzy had already gone upstairs, leaving Delilah and Dooby with a growling Karon in the kitchen. “What is going on?” Dooby insisted.

“They’re trying to cancel my insurance,” Karon said. “The insurance company?” Dooby asked. Karon cut him a reproachful glare. “No, Dooby,” she said. “The paper factory.” Delilah winced. “Of course the insurance company!” Karon raged. “They’re trying to cancel my car insurance because my Stang was totaled.” “That’s not fair,” Delilah said. “I don’t think they can do that with only one claim. Can they?” “Well, I might have some speeding tickets, too,” Karon said under her breath. “Some?” Delilah said, fearing the number clarification might reveal. She looked at Dooby, who was grinning. “You know how heavy footed she is,” Dooby said. “Some,” Delilah repeated. “As in two or more?” “Well, sort of,” Karon said. Crickets. The longer the silence stretched, the higher the number grew in Delilah’s mind. “Karon, I need to know how many speeding tickets you have in order to defend you against this injustice,” Delilah said. “Yeah, that ain’t gonna happen,” Dooby said with a bark of a laugh.

“Shut up, Dooby,” Karon said. “Oh, heavens, Karon,” Delilah exclaimed. “Could you lose your license?” Dooby guffawed. “Not funny, Dooby,” Karon said. “Actually, it was kind of funny,” Dooby said with a chuckle. “The look on your face.” “Wow,” Delilah said. “That’s like déjà vu all over again.” Footsteps down the stairs signaled the end of the conversation in the kitchen. Dooby, Delilah and Karon joined Eli, Joel, and Lizzy in the living room, after Karon swore Delilah and Dooby to her secret. Though Delilah still didn’t know how many speeding tickets Karon had collected. The conversation was monopolized with Lizzy’s comparisons between Oklahoma and Southern California. The summer temperatures, while quite similar, differed because the humidity made Oklahoma more uncomfortable, but L.A. winters were far milder. The traffic in Los Angeles was atrocious. The people in Oklahoma were kinder. The cost of living was higher out west. On and on with details so banal that anyone from anywhere could have produced the same

information. At least, that was what ran through Dooby’s mind. Lizzy was sharing nothing on a personal level that tied her to Los Angeles. There was something else that piqued his interest. Something so slight that he suspected no one else caught it. It was her accent. It didn’t sound natural to him. As though it had been practiced for a role in a play. He noticed, on occasion, Lizzy catching the absence of the overused word, ‘like’ and quickly making the adjustment. A subdued Karon sat in stony silence, until she had had her fill of the Valley Girl’s discourse, and excused herself, heading to the garage apartment. Dooby was not long behind her. Eli was the next to exit the living room, and headed for the stairs.

Perhaps if Delilah had been warned that Lizzy was now calling Eli Dad, she wouldn’t have internally freaked out. Perhaps if there had been more time between their introduction and Lizzy calling Eli Dad, Delilah wouldn’t have internally freaked out.

“Good night, Dad,” Lizzy said, before Eli made it to the bottom step. “Good night, Hun,” Eli said. Perhaps if Delilah had been warned that Lizzy was now calling Eli Dad, she wouldn’t have internally freaked out. Perhaps if there had been more time between their introduction and Lizzy calling Eli Dad, Delilah wouldn’t have internally freaked out. “Joel, could you give Delilah and me some privacy, please,” Lizzy requested sweetly. “Oh, sure,” Joel said, rising from the wingback chair. He glanced at Delilah as though asking her permission. Delilah gave him a curt nod, and he went upstairs, too. “I get the feeling you’re like, uncomfortable with me,” Lizzy said, with an air of concern. Two things flashed through Delilah’s mind. Should she apologize for acting in a manner that would make Lizzy uncomfortable? After all, if she was perfectly honest, she would have to admit a measure of reserve where Lizzy was concerned. But she didn’t want to acknowledge that. Or should she confront Lizzy’s passive aggressive behavior and shut it down before it went any further? Or a third option, put Eli smack dab in the middle of it. n
