shifting
infinitesimally —
stones in the creek

A few years ago when the Parks Dept. daylighted Duwamish Creek, and put in these three big rocks as stepping stones, they were really high. Now they have sunk deeply into the creek bed.

Although not deeply enough for some:
"That's one small step for man; one large leap for... a pug." Yesterday I came down the path and saw a pug hovering on the middle rock, apparently afraid to make the final step across. After much coaxing, the owner got him to cross to the other side.

Now I can't get the lyrics to "Stuck in the middle with you" out of my brain. Argh.
