#NewThisDay Writing From My Photo Stream

More summer. I swam and then drove to Connecticut to see my aunt. Brittany in the back seat. We haven’t taken a day trip together for awhile. Brittany makes my aunt very happy. She takes the leash and shows her around. We eat at a table out in the sun with Brittany off her leash. We remember Uncle Bob. It’s a long day in the car, I’m glad to have gone and seen her—she looks terrific. In the late afternoon sun I stretch my legs on a bike ride, just what I need. It’s hot, still hot, but dusk and dark come sooner than expected.
