The News From Poughkeepsie - Day 38

Scenes Thursdays:

(Some of this is true.)

I never take into account how much that can go wrong in the block I walk to pick up my child from the bus stop. I always try to remember to take with me: my dog, a weapon, a camera, and my phone. When I forget these things, I often see things like vultures fighting over the territory that surrounds a roadkill squirrel, feral, puffy, white dogs that got free after they killed their owners, or glimpses of the black bears that wander our area.

I’m just glad the school busses still run after the apocalypse. Cause protecting my kid on the walk home is about all I can handle.

  1. Well I hope that the part that is not true, is the post apocalypse thing. If that is the part that is true some how I got bumped off the distribution list.

    Then again maybe I don’t really want to know about that anyway!

  2. Would those be irradiated bears and vultures?
