THE PICNIC SANDWICH
It’s a lazy Sunday.
You and your favorite people are taking the road less travelled to the waterside spot on the outskirts of town.
The sun is shining, the windows are down. Willie’s on the radio.
A blanket and the perfect picnic sandwich are packed for the ride.
This is the good life …
