If it is raining you stay in where it is dry, right? Apparently not! Out we go, 3 rambunctious kids, ages 9-14 and the instigator. Donning rain jackets and umbrellas we head to the trail. Watching children play can be infectious. You do not walk around a puddle, you walk through it. The kids did , that is. There is a limit as to how much fun I can have with wet feet. Despite the cool and the rain, I have to admit I enjoyed myself, thanks to the instigator. It is never too late to enjoy life’s little and simple moments.

I am in my early 70’s, and experiencing new moments are few and far in between. S’mors to the rescue. That sweet, sticky,  gooey sandwich . Goes really well with scotch! Could only eat one; did not want to ruin the scotch. Let the adventure continue. Off to the ‘Rock’ next week to join the “instigator”. Why? See last sentence in first paragraph.
