May 18th

Snail in the wasteland

Slick streamlined track over stones

Silver in his wake

If the snail had hair it would have been swept back as he accelerated to get into the safety of a bush. I did consider lifting it and putting it somewhere where it could munch on some foliage, but then I remembered the Prime Directive. I was living my life like Star Trek that day, I couldn’t intervene.
