Human Effort



One of my favorite pix. Taken on the get-in-free-with-a-donation-of-nonperishable-food day at the local corn maze. It was crowded with hundreds of people and the dust was over an inch thick on the path from all the tracking and backtracking. The air was positively Dust Bowl-esque. My son and I were inside for an hour and a quarter. Toward the end, a path led directly toward the sun. Like the herd animals humans are, we strangers crowded together and followed each other's leads to dead ends and misleading corners, trusting each other's instincts until we triumphantly found the way out.
