Out into the Open

That gap in the sliding glass door was practically an open invitation. I squeezed right through the screen and hit the wide, sunny deck boards at full tilt! Out here, everything feels ten times bigger. A fuzzy yellow tennis ball was resting right near the top step, completely unguarded. Naturally, I charged in, launched a solid kick, and chased it down the wooden steps three at a time. The ball bounced high across the lawn while I bolted after it, finally skidding to a halt right in the warm grass. Man, being outside is a whole different game!
