The Getaway

It was to be a peaceful getaway
For Mr. and Mrs. Durham, a
vacation from their small town
in Idaho to Montreal, Canada.
Both in their 80s, they’d never
been out of Idaho. At an age
with death nearer, they wanted
a memorable getaway in their
waning lives. On the morning
of their flight to Canada, they
didn’t wake up. As fate would
have it, they took a flight into
the afterlife instead. Maybe
in spirit they went to Canada,
but I suspect they went to a
better destination instead.
