Tonight after a salty dinner, we were all in the mood for something sweet. So, I told D and Jack to get their shoes on and we'd walk to the snow cone shack.
The snow cone shack is only about five blocks away. That will be a pleasant evening walk, I thought.
Well, it happened to be windy today. Very windy. The boys tried to walk right back in the house but by that time, I was determined to walk.
So I got to listen to D and Jack complain for five blocks all the while blinking sand out of my eyes and brushing my hair out of my face. At the snow cone shack, we had to huddle behind the little building to keep the red strawberry flavored ice off our shirts.
As I sat watching the giant flag pole across the street wave back and forth struggling to stay upright in the wind, I thought to myself, "maybe not a good idea."
Luckily, the strong wind made the walk home pretty quick.
