In the park

We were on the bus waiting to pick up additional passengers to take on the same tour as us (because heaven forbid that we should leave on a bus not completely packed to the gills).  We were parked next to the public park where there was ample to look at during our wait - ballroom dancing lessons in the gazebo, Christmas decorations going up, kids playing games, adult playing sports.

My eyes fell upon an older lady who was the poster-woman for back-pain; bent over double, she had her elbows on her knees propping herself up as she stood still and watched the scene around her.  Her unfortunate proximity to the bush behind her made me laugh.

     "Hey, doesn't that lady look like she's peeing in the bush?"

There was a shared chuckle until the next moment when the woman straightened up, pulled up her pants and walked off.
