[Out-of-focus picture temporarily off-line; remake in the works]

Fraser Street, en route to a mystery collection in Steveston. Blue Rodeo's sprawling (7 minute!) Five Days in May (1993) on the radio at the stoplight, a song I haven't heard in years:

"Sometimes the world begins
To set you up on your feet again
and oh, it wipes the tears from your eyes.
How will you ever know
The way that circumstances go
Is gonna to hit you by surprise
Oh I know my past
You were there
In everything I've done:
You are the one."

Organ and piano gliding together, traffic moving again, red taillights in the rain, the new wiper blades clicking over.
