52. That Guy
I took the next day off to fish. The guy fishing next to me said we were lucky
to have such a warm day in October. A
photographer walking behind us said she loved using the fall leaves as a
backdrop. The guy’s girlfriend marveled
at the beauty of several large rainbow trout visible in the clear water.
A middle-aged man next to her said, “The only reason the
state stocked them trout was the hatchery didn’t want to feed ‘em no more.”
Today I won’t be that guy.
