The World Looks Different On Foot

So on my evening run I'm going through the cross-walk, and at the intersection, just starting to go in the opposite direction, I see a red Porsche 911 convertible with the top down;  at the wheel is a man wearing an Evel Knievel-style Stars-and-Stripes helmet, aviator shades, and in the back is his young daughter, maybe 8 or so, with a frilly frilled helmet on as well, both skinny little arms raised above her head, feeling the air, both of them with giant grins on their faces.

I shoulda yelled, "hooray, the economy is back!"

Counterclockwise Run
6.51 mi.  53 min.:4 sec.  8:09 pace.
