Life 101

When I walked out of work this evening, the wind had the flag standing at attention. The metal fasteners were tinging against the pole. The moon was obscured by cloud as I cranked the truck, but they parted briefly and I could see the old man as clear as a picture.

I had an uneventful ride home which is the way I like it. Too many times when the roads are wet, there are accidents that turn the Interstate into a parking lot.

The temps dropped dramatically this evening and I had to crank up the fireplace to keep my toes from breaking off like stubby icicles.

Y'all stay warm.
