A MAN OUT OF TIME

I was in the Korean supermarket buying some 5000 year old glacier water.

The man checking out in front of me was carrying a rawhide backpack on a frame of branches. He was all dressed in rough leather.

He was the very picture of an early American frontiersman.

I thought he might be a reenactor.

I went over to Hungerford Drive to wait for the bus, and he walked past at a fast pace in the direction of downtown Rockville.

I suddenly realized I was missing out on an opportunity.

But I couldn't catch up with him. Not with my bum leg.

So I thought I'd catch the bus and get ahead of him and find out who was what.

But the bus was late, and I never saw him again.

Was he the real thing?

Am I ?

Interesting! At least your sighting gave you something to ponder and speculate about.
