My family was about to walk into a Target in south Florida when two police cars, driving much faster than was safe for a parking lot, pulled up to the front doors. Their lights were off, but my wife and I made eye contact and turned our kids around.

Generally speaking, officers of the law exceeding the speed limit is always a “avoid this area” signal for me.

My dad shared his joys with me like this as well. I was as reluctant as Calvin.

I notice that every time I ask one of my kids to go out for a long walk I am doing what my father did: trying to share the things I care about. Every time I ask I get turned down, though. I’m blaming the rising temperatures of Earth rather than them not wanting to be with me.
