Telescope on the Timber

I hopped up onto the sun-warmed wooden picnic table and spotted a sturdy brown cardboard paper towel core lying right beside a dropped wooden clothes pin! Instead of bowling it across the planks, I had a brand new idea. I nudged the cardboard tube with my snout until it pointed straight toward the playground swings. Then I planted my flat base firmly on the rough cedar tabletop, leaned my face forward, and peeked with one eye right down the hollow dark tunnel! Whoa! The distant red swing chains lined up perfectly in the circular circle like a secret goal line in a telescope! Best midday view on the bench!
