The Sprinkler

Although usually reserved for younger men and women, a sprinkler can provide adults with an equal amount of fun for all ages. As I witnessed the bachelor and his counterpart race through the malaryia sprinkers in an un-governed golf cart, I made a mental note of the expression on the two men's faces. Sheer bliss. The laughter that echoed across the island will forever be burned in my brain as a happy place I can visit when I am blue.

I challenge the rest of us to find our "sprinkler" and run through is as often as possible. Yes, the amusement may have been caused by the lack of sleep, el presidente, dehydration, etc. However, as I shop for lawn sprinkers as a wedding gift, I take comfort in knowing that at a minimum it will serve as a fond memory as well as add needed color to a deprived lawn.
