Hiking with the Man

Seems like it takes Kobae a little longer every year before he's ready to go hiking and this year he strung it all the way out to August, but hiking we went. For the last few days he's had that far off look in his eye. As he walks across the driveway to come to the porch to eat he stares down the driveway as if it's calling him, much the way Tom feels about the beach right now.
