It was late morning when the message came in work had been canceled for the day. It was to be expected as the forecast predicted rain and even snow all day.
I asked David what his plans were but as he was still recovering from flu-type symptoms he denied my offer to go for a hike. That didn’t mean I had to stay at home. I strapped on my hiking boots and off I went.
