So my family went hiking to one of my favorite places today.
I did not join them.
I sat.
In the parking lot.
In a chair.
Waiting for them to return.
Because of this:
Which is because of this:
A giant slip-n-slide, 100′ long.
Which was tremendous fun!
Out of about 75 people, I am the only who walked away limping.
My Mom, who has a more permanently messed up leg than mine, sat with me.
While waiting their return I read her book.
And enjoyed my visitor, who stayed for quite some time…
My oldest, feeling sorry for me,
brought me something to photograph,
an end off a broken pine cone.
She has a good eye. I like the pattern.
