Kennett is a really small town sometimes. On Saturday I went out for a walk in Anson Nixon Park with a friend of mine, and yes he happens to be good-looking and of the male variety, and afterward we stopped off at the Half Moon for some refreshments.
The very next morning I got an email from a mutual friend saying he had spotted the two of us, and was there something romantic going on (at this point he added about five question marks, indicating his avid curiosity). I assured him that no, there wasn't. Yeesh!
By the way, during our walk we noticed that Anson Nixon Park has its own "green light on the dock," just like in "The Great Gatsby." It's just a tiny green indicator light on some kind of equipment attached to a wooden platform, but from the other side of the lake, by the amphitheater, the light looks as big as a beacon.
My companion was the first to spot it, and he nudged me and pointed. "Gatsby," was all he needed to say.
