Two little girls, 7 and 8, and me on the ground helpless.<br /><br />Then I went up on the ride a couple of hours later with them in the swings ahead of me, and that was even worse!<br /><br />I never thought it ended in tragedy, but I may be projecting. I usually am.karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15428202747324083680noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982689682328012818.post-25121775260139602872012-02-06T04:49:14.362-07:002012-02-06T04:49:14.362-07:00Did they come back or are they still heading towar...Did they come back or are they still heading towards Cuba?Symdaddyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08953255546935904450noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2982689682328012818.post-54119406476051730602012-02-06T00:37:16.670-07:002012-02-06T00:37:16.670-07:00Thanks for linking up to the weekend challenge.

Although, technically, we don't know what happened to the plane, the words "that plane" pretty much give it away, don't they? You've done a fabulous job creating characters, plot and mood all with very few words. Nicely done.
