Sometimes we swim at twilight, just as the dusk is beginning to settle. On a warm summer evening the river is burnished by the last amber light and the shadows thicken and seem full of magic and gleaming eyes. The darkness rises out of the water to meet the lowering sky and is personable, tolerant and patient with us. There is nothing to fear on a still summer night if you bring your respect and wisdom to the water, there is everything to fear if you don’t.
