AND since I forgot about word count, because I was so excited to be in the Top 10 contributors … here it is again, under 100 words 😁
Photo Prompt @ Roger Bultot
My grandkids miss so much, faces pressed to devices.
In my favourite recce spot, I wait for mine.
Then, look down.
What’s the time, weather, shipping schedule?
Can you fish here? Where can I eat? Kids on their way?
Look down.
I hear, “Hi Grandad.”
Look up.
“Hello son.”
“Great weather,” he says.
Look up.
“Oh! Yes, it is.”
“Great fishing,” says the grandson.
” I was wondering …” I reply.
“I’d love a burger. Nathans do great food, ” he says.
Look up.
“Right. I was wondering ….”
Cop onto yourself, old man.
Look up! You’re missing out.
Friday fictioneers is a weekly challenge set by Rochelle Wisoff Fields to write a story in response to a photo prompt – in 100 words or less. You can find other stories here.

Electronics are magic held in your hand. They are also life-suckers for all ages. Nice example of showing how they interfere with real living.

We see much more when we look up and embrace life. Inspiration story is a moralistic way.

Dear Trish,
It is a universal issue isn’t? Oh, excuse me, I’m getting a text message. 😉 Thank you for scaling back to 100. It works quite well. 😀
Shalom,
Rochelle
