Fall Prompt #4: Write a story about a fall hiking trip.
"I have an idea."
Gammon looked up from his newspaper at his adoptive daughter. "What might that be?"
Maraly shrugged. "We could go on a hiking trip. Maybe invite some people."
"And, who would we invite?"
"I dunno, maybe the Wingfeathers? Or, just a few of them..."
Gammon tried to hide his smile. "Are you saying you want to just invite Sara-"
"Well, first, she's not a Wingefeather-"
"Yet."
"Gammon she's only sixteen."
"With a boyfriend, and they've been in love for how long? I forget."
Maraly sighed. "Gammon!"
Gammon laughed. "Alright alright. Well, we could invite her, and how about Janner? Or Kalmar? Heck, we could invite all three Jewels."
"If you invite Leeli she'll most likely bring a dog. Or two. Or her entire army because she can't bear to be away from them."
Gammon laughed again. "Well, how about we don't invite anyone?"
"Yeah, that sounds fun too."
"Well, since it is Fall, we should dress warm. Let's get ready." Gammon said, standing up.
"Wait, we're going right now?!" Maraly also stood up.
Gammon nodded. "Why not now?"
Maraly thought for a second, then shrugged.
Gammon smiled. "Exactly. Now let's get ready."
After around 15 minutes, Gammon and Maraly were ready and headed out for a hike. The hike lasted for a few hours, but Gammon and Maraly talked the whole time.
It was a day they'd both remember.
