the giant whale

My dad's family has a cabin in the Colorado mountains. Behind the cabin, and up the mountain a bit, there is a gigantic rock. It is maybe, a tiny bit, just maybe, shaped like a giant whale. My whole life we have called this rock "Moby Dick".

Today we went to the summer movies. The movie playing was called The Pagemaster. In the movie, the characters enter many classic novels, including Moby Dick.

During the movie, when Moby made his appearance, and his name was said more than once, Lily became excited. She started whispering loudly, and then speaking to me loudly, "MOBY DICK!! Mom!! IT'S MOBY DICK!! We know MOBY DICK!"

Yeah, it was embarrassing.
