We fixed up a short forked stick to hang the old lantern on, because we must always light the lantern whenever we see a steamboat coming down - stream, to keep from getting run over ; but we wouldn t have to light it for up - stream boats unless we see we was in what they call a " crossing " ; for the river was pretty high yet, very low banks being still a little under water ; so up - bound boats didn t always run the channel, but hunted easy water
我們豎起一根矮樹杈子，把那盞舊的燈掛了上去，因為每當有輪船往下游開來，我們必須點亮這盞燈，防止它把我們撞翻。不過，有上水的輪船開來，我們不用點燈，除非我們發現自己漂到了人家所說的「橫水道」上，因為河水還漲得很高，很低的河岸還有一小部分淹沒在水下，因此上水的船往往不闖這個水道，而尋找流得慢一些的水道走。I remember very clearly at the age of six years old, when my father and i bought several 5 gallon can size trees from the local nursery. forty years ago, each one of those trees had a trunk about as round as a golf ball and stood about three feet tall. i remember very clearly that they weren t any bigger than i was when we put them into the ground, all those years ago
你可能不知道，那些樹是我栽種的，我六七歲時，家父和我買了這五加侖桶樹，樹干這么粗，每棵都這么高，我知道，因為它們種在地里，比當年的我還要矮小，它們在桶里看起來比較高大，因為那些桶把它們承高了，但種在地里，他們就縮小了，只有約這么大今天你走到那裡，四十多年後，這些樹的樹干有這么粗，這不是一夜之間就發生的，不是一年之間就發生的，不是五年之間就發生的，要四十年這些樹才長成，每一年它們都更大更壯。
