About this work
Northern Wisconsin, late summer. The site sold the same Friday-to-Sunday twice. Nora got here first from Minneapolis. She is married. Her husband’s flight is still delayed, and he told her to just make it work.
One cabin. A loft, a dock, an outdoor shower. “There’s only one room.” Drive to the motel in town and the night is a booking mix-up. Split the loft and the lake goes black, and there was never another bedroom door.
