Lord of the Castle

On the way home from church, I drove by the little frozen waterfall…

As I drove by, I thought that it was worth taking another picture. So…

I started backing up…

Made sense to me. Evidently, my wife didn’t think so.

As I put it in reverse, Bunch said, “What are you doing?”

“Backing up.”

“You can’t back up! That’s illegal!”

I kept going…

“You can’t back up on a curvy road like this! It is SO dangerous!”

I kept going…I could see down the road. In fact, a car did come by and I had plenty of time to pull safely off to the side of the road to let him pass.

And then I resumed backing up…

“This is so unsafe!”

By now, we had made it back to the waterfall and pulled off to the side of the road. If women had their way, we wouldn’t have any fun…

Well, not exactly any…

but…

you know what I mean!

As I was getting out of the truck, she said, “What kind of an example are you setting?”

“A terrible one…Not only was it ‘unsafe’, ‘illegal’ and a bad example, you forgot to mention that I am a 50 year old man dressed in a suit on a Sunday and that I had my wife and daughter in the car while I did it!”

I got her with that one. She laughed and laughed.

Oh yeah, the waterfall…

I took a picture because it was sporting a Laurel and Hardy mustache…
