Glen and Paul - Patricia LeBon Herb

[Larry Robinson]

Glen and Paul

At Stewart Municipal Campground in British Columbia

bordering Alaska





Two happy middle aged men and

a white jeep station wagon



On top, a pop up tent for sleeping

a small ladder down the side of the car 



One man went for a walk

while the other made dinner



A campsite picnic table

just a few steps from their car



A shake of a checkered table cloth 

smoothed out by strong hands



A wine and beer glass, colorful plates

a small portable grill 




The man returned from his walk

to a well thought out dinner



They ate together under the coniferous

trees in the warm glow of the evening light



When dinner was over they bundled it all up 

put it carefully back into the jeep



They climbed up the ladder and went off to bed



The next morning fresh pressed coffee, orange juice

with scrambled eggs and toast



Two heads together studying a map

folding it back slowly, section by section




They pushed down the pop up tent

retrieved the ladder, and drove away
