Leap II February 29, 2012

Last leap day, I bought a new car.
Today I am working, cleaning my office, readying for a gathering here on my birthday. Saying goodbye to my forties.
The snow begins to fall. I haven’t been on Lynda’s swing set since time turned February. It’s now or never.
I dust snow off the seat. I fly through the flakes, into the pine, over the rushing stream, and back again.
Route 153 
A toast to Indigo Bunting’s great leap forward into her fifties.
I smiled. What a way to celebrate saying good-bye to your 40s. I hope I can do something similar … when the time comes, that is.
And it goes without saying I wish I was there at your gathering.
xo on your birthday.
So sorry we’ll be away! Have a happy decade.
What fun. It makes me wish we kept our swing set. Perhaps we should install a swing on one of our remaining trees.
