My kids and I came upon a flashlight in the woods when we were hiking together. To our surprise it worked well and produced a strong beam of light. We were on a remote trail in Pingree Park and couldn't help but wonder how someone lost such a good flashlight. We decided to spend the rest of our hike creating different scenarios of how the flashlight landed in that spot and the identity of its owner. My children imagined that the owner was violently attacked by a wild animal in the night and began to look for signs of the attack. Our stories seemed to gravitate to the more dramatic and violent. If you like writing, maybe you could create your version of how the flashlight was lost and share it at our next Church Planter's Lunch on Thursday, March 26 at the Longs Peak Baptist Associational building in Berthoud (there is a link on the blog to a map). Hope to see you there.
