Testing the Red Brick Step

Right foot up! Thump! I planted my boot squarely against the rough edge of a raised garden brick. It didn't slide, not one bit. The gritty surface gave excellent grip! I crouched slightly, grabbed the top lip with both gloved hands, and hoisted myself up onto the ledge. Standing tall, I looked down the long line of red clay pavers stretching ahead like a fresh trail. Solid footing, clear line, perfect for marching forward!
