Short Story Long: we don't need no stinkin' punctuation.
Battling no-seeums and an over-zealous, over-sharing, oblivious neighbor, Meredith camps out at Davis Bayou, Mississippi. Why this man confides in her, she'll never know! Meanwhile across the bayou, barbecue with friends, a rosy sunset, and Christmas lights make the evening. They invite her to try alligator gumbo and charm her with delightful, rambling southern storytelling. In the spirit of trying mystery foods, Meredith entertains that maybe she will host a "socially distant durian potluck". Who knows?
