Once upon a time

 

Peter Pan goes by so many aliases. 

Right now he is hiding out in the trees of Appalachia, surrounded by his band of boys who do a lot of carpentry work when they are not kayaking, rafting and canoeing.

Wendy is making leather crafts and weaving fairy hair when she is not with the  boys.

The youngest Darling has been returned home where he plays video games near his attic window.

And the crocodile creeps around like a ticking bomb looking for things to destroy.

While here in the Heartland Alice has awakened in Wonderland where most things are wondrously white and shiny and the air conditioner keeps everything cool.

The world lies at her feet, waiting to be painted in dreams and memories and served up with tea and cookies.

Everywhere you look the familiar fairy tales are replaying themselves with new faces and old stories told time and time again.
