Monkey Around

Was downtown with Megan, enjoying my supermarket sushi in the town gazebo (I know, so idyllic) when we spotted a man walking his monkey.

No joke. Nothing crude. The man had a little monkey on a leash and was walking it as if it was the most normal thing in the world. The children playing in the field did not squeal, the ladies sitting on their picnic blankets didn't stare, the teenage skaters did not point and laugh, everyone acted as if there was nothing to see. But there was! Megan and I saw it! There was a man with a monkey on a leash and harness! Later, they sat down on a park bench and ate some snacks. Best trip into town ever.
