A. It was supposed to be a fun day for the preschoolers. They’d visit a farm, pet some baby animals, and return home with new coloring books and butter they’d churned themselves. Unfortunately, on the way to the farm there was a massive accident on the freeway.
There was no room for the bus to turn around, so the children and adult chaperons spent four hours waiting for the traffic to clear up.
Instead of cute farm photos and young children learning a love of nature and animals, there was hours of whining complaints and several potty training setbacks.
2. Fired up by her desire to provide healthier food for her family, she arranged a visit to a local farm. She wanted to see where her food came from.

In retrospect, she wished that she had done a bit of research before driving out to the farm. She’d had no idea how a modern organic farm worked. It was not the Willy Wonka-ish factory tour she’d somehow been expecting.

If he could have told them to leave and never come back, he would have, but he needed the money. It was why he’d agreed to the tour idea in the first place. And since he’d agreed, he made himself play along.
He smiled until his cheeks ached and calculated the number of hours until they would be gone in his head. He put up a calendar just so he could cross out the days.
