I Let My Father Drop Me

It seemed to be the thing to do at the time.

I pretended that I couldn't keep with him.

We did Seattle to Portland together.

Met at the finish by his brother.

I never understood why we lived two miles from Rainier, but he would always identify that we were from Yelm.

The guy...

Each day, we had the 10 or 20 mile ride - same dogs chasing us.

Like every day.
