Not because it was time for a new cellphone. The old cellphone was only a couple months old and was perfectly fine until it drowned. It was riding along in my pocket then it just suddenly drowned. Coincidentally, it drowned at precisely the moment I decided to step into the kayak. The kayak was floating in the shallow water just a little offshore in the pond. I didn’t want to get my foot wet, so instead of stepping closer to the boat, I just took one big step from the dry land to the kayak. As one grandkid put it, I tried not to get my foot wet and ended up getting my hat wet. A full-body dunk. The new dry cellphone arrives tomorrow.
