Pam and I glared at each other, trying to figure out who was to blame for our near disaster. Then we just laughed hysterically. I pleaded, ‘Pleeeas... don’t ever take me jogging again in a cow pasture.’ ‘Well, I used to think it was safer than being on the road.’ I peeked down the ladder opening. ‘He’s still there.
