"Choose Joy!" recommends a painted rock balanced on a log. Roadkill's unerring sense of direction errs as he leads Square Peg on an unplanned ramble through the woods. The two adventurers slip-slide on muddy slopes, skate across slimy wooden bridges, and skirt puddles left by last night's thunderstorms.
"Don't fall!" ... "Watch out!" ... "That stream-bank is about to collapse!" When they do get back to Rock Creek Trail the paved path is equally treacherous. Bulldozers work to clear flood detritus from parking lots. Danger Man waits patiently for the wayward twins at Meadowbrook Stables, then escorts them upstream and back, a warm-up for his race tomorrow. Friends give thanks for friendships.
