slug

Yesterday we caught a slug

we gave him lots to eat:

green grass & juicy romaine, what a yummy treat

but this morning it appeared he had eaten, and then fled

except for something small and lifeless, lying on his bed.

our day is greatly saddened, to learn this slug's poor fate

for we failed to give him water, and his thirst he could not sate.

anniversary 8

What's in Wendover? not much.

but it sure was a great get-away:

when all you need is a good night's sleep,

some history to tickle the mind,

a hike to exercise the body,

freedom from responsibilities,

time to think-

pondering on the abundance of joy that is your life

and the choice you made eight years ago

that you would make again today

So while there's not usually much in Wendover,

over the weekend there was my whole world.

Here's to our next adventure together!

Sometimes . . . 

a picnic is enjoyed best alone.
