a ride

Pat and I went for a short ride yesterday on the motorcycle. Did not see much beyond the stuff we always see. Nothing stood out except for one brief passing moment. We were riding down Alabama Highway and passed a house that had 3 people in the yard. Nothing unusual about that you say. You are right, nothing unusual. A boy and a girl, probably in their preteens and an older man, (maybe their grandfather or possibly their father or uncle) raking leaves in the yard. What struck me me was just as we were coming upon them the girl ran up to the man and gave him a crushing hug and he responded back with the same. Just gave me a warm feeling inside to see such a public display of pure love.
