I really didn’t think it would happen, but they surprised me on Friday. I really didn’t expect the whole “go outdoors” thing to happen. But it did.
So I did. And it looked like a few other people did, as well. Although I only noticed from a distance. But there seemed to be other people doing the same thing. A few on Saturday, but even more on Sunday. People were outdoors, blinking in the sunshine. Looking like we’re really not sure we should be there. Moving slowly at first. Taking those first tentative steps, then finally running free.
Okay. Maybe not as bad as that. But it was close. Let’s face it. Being able to go outside was pretty great.
It’s also not a big secret that I enjoy fishing. While the catching is fun, it’s the getting out that is the important part. Although the fact that I caught a trout was a nice bonus.
Being able to get out on the water was pretty nice. The trout will be joining me for dinner tonight. But I already know what it will taste like. Fresh air and sunshine. In a little butter. There’s nothing better.
