A moment

Just got back from the sauna. Me, my sister and our mom.

Rain on the lake and rain on the sauna's tin roof. Hot, hot air. I'm out of practise taking saunas; got over heated and had to jump in the lake over and over.
Lemon water in plastic cups and more water on the hot stones. More water. More lemon water.

Then soap on rough scrubby spounges and red flaky skin. All of us swimming upstream. Floating back. Driving home wrapped in bath robes from the 80's.

I could have been 10. It could have been yesterday. I wanted it to last forever.
