The Big Push

I heard birds chattering outside and ran straight across the hallway floor to the sliding glass door! The glass was totally clear, looking out toward rooftops and trees, but the door was shut tight. No problem! I planted both sneaker soles flat against the aluminum frame and braced my back right against the sliding panel. With a big grunt and a heave, I pushed with all my might! It slid open just two inches with a nice, metallic rumble. The fresh breeze rushed right through, tousling my whiskers! Next stop: the outside world!
