Travel Boots

Years passed in only one day.  He replaced the boots on the stone wall where he had borrowed them that morning.  He left a note for the owner:

Thank you for the boots, though I didn’t ask permission.  I’m sorry for the duct tape.  Your boots wore out from miles of travel, over years and years.  Putting on the boots this morning, I was taken back in time, then forward, then back … well, you get the picture. 

I wasn’t able to change past events too much, for the better, though I tried.  Maybe I’ll get another chance.

“Friday Fictioneers” is a weekly challenge hosted by the lovely Rochelle Wisoff Fields.  The challenge is to write a story, using only 100 words, in response to a photo prompt.  It has been a lot of fun to join in with this fantastic and encouraging group of writers!  This week’s photo was submitted by Courtney Wright, the photographer would like to remain anonymous.  If you would like to read other Friday Fictioneers’ stories, click HERE.
