Sayan's perspective

"Dollies in the Window"

We went for a beautiful hike this afternoon. A good way up the trail
Sayan starts saying "dollies in the window, dollies in the window" and
pointing up a ravine to a little glade framed in by fallen trees. I
asked him if he meant "doggies" and he said no "dollies, babies". I
said, "oh, there are dollies up there?" "Yes." I asked him to
describe what he saw, what they looked like and he said they looked
like "Saynini" (what he calls himself). I said "so they are like
little people, like babies?" He said, "smaller people, dollies!" Thank
you, Santa Fe wood sprites, for welcoming us!
