Lost In Wander

Prompt: Not all who wander are lost. We are to write about this today.

I don't know. I wander away with my thoughts but I know where I am. I walked in a bean field years ago and you feel like you will be lost but you know the scenery, so you know where you are. Getting lost when I am out driving, I am lost and do need to stop and ask for help. My mind wanders all the time. My husband says I daydream when we are planting flowers. I wandered away from my mother in Tucson, Arizona where some movie stars were there for a day. The skipper from Gilligan's Island was there and picked me up and returned me to my mother! The skipper rescued me. He saved me but not the USS Minnow! I always loved him. Anyway, we can be lost in thought. Sometimes, we don't know what to think or do. We can wander, like walking along the dunes by Lake Michigan and everything is sand but you smile. You see the lake. You wandered but you aren't lost. The best place to wander and get lost is in your own mind!
