A pathetic sight on a hike today This wasn’t much of a hike actually. We took a gondola 3/4 of the way up to the top of a popular mountain attraction, and the rest of the way up is just stairs. 1/2 mile of easy, safe, wooden stairs, but I’m getting over a cold. Anyway, there was a kid of about 5 or 6 on the stairs wailing and fake-crying. NO MOM PLEEEEASE I CAN’T MY FEET HURT WAAAH OWW NO MORRRE IM SOOO TIRRREDDD And the mom replies, Aw poor sweetie, want some twizzlers? Here have a twizzler... Wanna rest again? And it goes back and forth like that. This is the ONLY kid I witnessed doing this and I passed about a hundred of them. Also on the same walk today, I saw a really fat kid with a fat mom. The kid was by far the fattest kid there. So I don’t suppose anyone could guess how many DIFFERENT children I’m talking about...
