Hafford VII: Sabbath
I couldn't sleep on Saturday night. At five am, after tossing for hours, I got in my truck and drove to the trees. No alcohol. The sun was rising. Pretty as hell.
I climbed onto a big branch and carved Ecclesiastes 7:16 in the bark. It took me a half-hour.
"Do not be over-wise, do not be over-righteous. Why should you ruin yourself?"
I drove home and watched Tribal Trails. Then I enjoyed the news-lady for a while and went to bed.

My dad has been on Tribal Trails quite a number of times

Has he? That's so great.
My Grandma watches every Sunday morning. I can hear the theme song clearly in my head.
Why would you carve something in the tree? Those aren't for you to damage. Geez, have some respect.
But what can you expect from a person who has to make a point of stating there was no alcohol?
Pathetic.
