What if your final adventure was your most extraordinary?
Meet The Swimmer, an unlikely hero in his eighties, who leaves his island home with nothing but a Speedo, goggles, and a forgotten vow. Swimming oceans and slipping through therapy tubs, he searches for the truth buried in his past. But this is no ordinary quest. Each unique combination of his prescribed medications unlocks strange, unpredictable powers- if only he could figure out which mix does what.
With heart, humor, and a touch of magic, this whimsical tale explores memory, aging, and the wild hope that it's never too late to keep a promise-or start an adventure.
At just three years old, my first granddaughter spoke with a charming mix of confidence and creativity. She used words like Lasterday, Nexterday, and Inaminnit to describe time in her own way-shaped partly by her father's procrastinations.
These whimsical words became more than toddler talk. They captured fleeting, treasured moments-echoes of times and places that no longer exist except in memory.
Lasterday is a work of love-a playful, heartfelt attempt to share with my grandchildren the freedom, joy, and wonder of a cherished past. Like the cold, clear mountain streams of my youth, those moments have flowed beyond my reach, living now only in memory.
