Last Ride

#FlashTag @monologging Head out the window, feeling the breeze… I’m waiting and waiting. This is our last drive.

#FlashTag @JemmaMarieBeggs My life has been one of simple pleasures; walks in the park, visits to the beach, the sun on my back. I am loved.

#FlashTag @jkres14 “Sit,” Ted says. I do as I’m told. Ted rolls up the window. He’s steering with his knees & eating a sandwich.

#FlashTag @monologging There is a succinct POP. The car rockets to the right. We slow. We exit. The tire is sagging into the grass.

#FlashTag @diranasaurus Ted stares at the tire and sighs. “What do you think, Bud?” I flop into a patch of sunlight.

#FlashTag @jkres14 Ted expertly replaces the flat tire. Instead of traveling, we have a makeshift picnic on the side of the road.
