 Six Sentence Story

Josie has started a Six Sentence Story prompt and Iam joining in! The prompt was TRIP and here's my attempt....

Trip

As she tumbled down the overgrown grassy embankment she thought she would never stop.Branches hung overhead and the nettles that grew under the trees stung her legs as she slid down the slope at a pretty amazing speed
And stopped at the bottom of the hill with a resounding bump.
Wow!
In all the time of walking these paths she had never managed to get here and it was amazing."Get ready for another adventure" she yelled up to her son. 

*************************

This was based on a true story. I read it to Chips and he grinned,he has a mad mother y'know.

Thanks for hosting this linky Josie,I for one appreciate all the fun and care you bring into the blogosphere and I know plenty of others feel the same way.

  1. I loved this story Jess! It reminded me of carefree younger days and rolling down grassy hills. It sounds like this "trip" landed you in a spot with a new perspective! Sometimes the places we end up by taking a new direction... even if it means bumps and bruises along the way, can be the best places of all! Great contribution to Six Sentence Stories... thank you for joining us! (By the way, the new prompt for the coming week can be found at the 6SS tab on top my page :-)

    1. Thanks Josie!We found a river!A great big river!We were amazed!It was quite funny to go along in the same direction but at a different level and see something that had been there all along but we had never been able to get down there to see it. It fascinated me :-)
