MAYBE TIMES

Yesterday was the first time I shopped at our little local grocery store at the same time as a big family of rez folks, looking grim and business-like while they bought two carts of food, much of it chips.  I didn't know any of them -- they were too young, meaning in their thirties.  Their car had a 38 plate, meaning Glacier County.

Also present was a white man with a gun on his hip in a lawman-type holster.  He was with a woman, who was friendly, but he was not. He could easily have been an officer of some kind, maybe a veteran.

It means nothing.  Maybe.

We're living in Maybe Times.
