I Needed To Cool Down

"If you ever need anything, don't hesitate to call," Marissa encouraged as she dropped Hazel off in front of her cabin.

She smiled at her neighbor's kindness. "I won't. Thank you. Say hi to your husband for me."

Hazel hadn't met the fabled Doug but she had heard his name mentioned multiple times now. Maybe she would meet him when Will took her skiing. The resort he owned was the most well-known one in the area.

"Same to you!" Marissa said cheerfully before revving the snowmobile's engine and heading back to her own house.

Life in the mountains grew rather complicated in the winter. Marissa had to drop her children off at home first since her oldest son was capable of watching his siblings for short periods of time. Then she had to hitch a small trailer to the back of the snowmobile to fit Hazel's groceries before coming back to get her.
