The Watering Hole

Animals have a watering hole that they gather at.  You have all seen those nature shows where all the animals are around the water hold drinking.  I realized today that I have a "watering hole" of my own.  There is this wonderful ice machine at our school.  It puts out those little pellets that are soft and just feel so good when you bite on them.  Every morning it is my habit to get ice.  Mostly I get water also, but sometimes I just want ice.  I never go to the ice machine without seeing someone.  Today my friend said, "This is where we meet."  It's true.  I have so many wonderful friends there, and we don't always see each other.  We are so busy that we don't have time to wander around much.  We meet occasionally at the ice machine.  We get to say hi and encourage each other while treating ourselves to some tasty ice pellets.  I love my little "watering hole".  Wonder who I will see there tomorrow.....
