"Let's take a walk." Even though the family included a mom, a dad, and three teenagers, no one said, "I'm too busy," or "That's lame, Dad."
If Dad wanted to walk, it was sure to be a good time. We geared up with hats, gloves, heavy coats, winter boots. The air was crisp and twenty-something, but there was little wind.
We walked to the top of the lower field and trampled through high weeds to the neighbors' fields. High above the town, we could see the sparkling lights below, but the heavenly stars and moon put all that to shame. Even the snow sparkled and glowed.
