Picnic time

The sunshine invited us to go for a picnic. We stopped by a store and picked out our treats and headed for picnic bench number one. It was so windy and the wild flowers were not as evident as we had hoped. We drove on and walked up to picnic bench number two, aka hard rock. It overlooked a carp pond and my hubby seemed to think that was spectacular. It also overlooked a loud train and I-84. We decided to try picnic bench number three. We drove and walked, then crossed a stinky waterway. I waited, hubby explored and we decided the Mosier sewage treatment center must be close by and we could still hear the freeway noise. We paused, thought of our back yard with the birds, the pond and a table with chairs that have backs. We drove home with our treats. It only took us an hour to find our perfect outdoor picnic location.
