Among the Thomasites


Criticize the photograph but consider that I drove two hours to Lancaster, parked in a cornfield, took the boys on a school bus that Oliver enjoyed more than Thomas himself, got stuck in ticket limbo because we'd missed our train, then couldn't get Oliver to uncover his eyes when Thomas appeared because he was so embarrassed, rode Thomas, fed Oliver hot dogs and fries and Alistair yogurt and pre-pumped breast milk on ice, took a school bus back to the car, had everybody and I mean everybody pee in the corn, then played eighteen holes of miniatures golf, all without anyone getting seriously injured.

I just read your recent article in the Believer and enjoyed it very much. And now I shall read your blog.
