7:30 sharp
Heather is less than enthused
But we have coffee
A great bald eagle
Feasts hungrily on a fox
Roadkill for her lunch

The road to Slave Lake
Is made mostly of potholes
Swerve. Swerve. Swerve. Swerve. Thud!
Long drive and short bench
Down by four, but we rally
To come within one
The sunshine streams in
We drive, eager to get home
For a nice warm bath
