Row Boats in the Park
I keep a number of lists about things I want to do, places I want to see, and food I want to eat. And for a long time — nearly seven years — rowing boats in the park has always been the thing on my lists.
Somehow, checking this one off the list always meant that many things had to be just right: the right weather, a free day, and childcare-free.
Well, to my and happiness, all three of those things did come together on my birthday morning! After breakfast, Jordan and I made our way to the park .
the autumn colors weren't yet at their peak(峰值), the autumn scenery(风景) was still great to see. It was , and the wind was soft and gentle. Our limited(有限的) row-boating skills gave us reasons to laugh at .
We made our way past the trees, under the bridge, and into the lake. The water was still and clear a mirror(镜子) under the boat, in which we can see the reflections(倒影) of the boat and our smiling .
Everything was fun as I imagined. I can't think of a way to get relaxed on my birthday than this.
"Have you decided to do next on your lists?" Jordan asked me.
"I have to think it over," I replied.
"Take your time," Jordan said to me, "I will always be here."
