Grand Threshold Expedition

The indoor theater is grand, but a real trouper craves a world tour! I trotted down the long hallway toward the front door, drawn by the cool breeze humming beneath the gap. Right there on the woven welcome mat sat a towering mountain: a pair of muddy sneakers! No obstacles, only props! I clambered up the sturdy rubber sole, grabbed a long braided shoelace like a spotlight cable, and looped it into an impressive carnival lasso. With a triumphant stomp on the tongue of the shoe, I tested the perimeter. The great outdoors awaits its star, and I’ve already got the reins!
