It's Microfiction Monday over at stony river. We are invited to write a short, short story based on a specific picture in 140 characters or less (including punctuation and spacing).Done with all that ego, Ana stomped over to clueless Luis. “Three hours of walking and still nowhere! Get that guy and ask for directions!”

I love it... ha, "clueless Luis..." awesome!
women and making their men ask for directions,, lololo
Teehee. A man asking for directions? No wonder Ana is tearing her hair out!
Thanks for the smile, Kelly!!
:D om
Oh boy is this familiar! I looked at this photo prompt over at Stony River and had no idea how to incorporate it into such a short story. You always amaze me with your creativity!
Why are men like that? My hubby cringes any time I say I'll just stop and ask for directions. It saves so much time. That's too funny!
ana just better ask for the directions herself... :)
Cute one! Get some directions already!!! ;O)
Ah, men--They just hate to ask for directions, no matter what country or culture they're in! You illustrated a universal truth here! Great job!
Ah, Luis and that ego! :)
I love "done with all that ego" -- I know the feeling!!
Good one.

Loved this, Kelly. I thought my man was the only one who hated asking ... well, anything really.
Clever take and writing on Poncho Man. "Done with all that ego." Brilliant!
LOL. I doubt that he will give in just yet...would go against his 'manliness'!!! Loved your take...
Cheers!
Hi Kelly,
What a great take on the story, that's some imagination you have, wish I could see the extraordinary, in the ordinary!!
Maybe Clueless Luis should have charged up the GPS.
Although the last water was 40 miles ago, Jorge could not bring himself to remove his hip waders.
I hope she is dressed better than he is ! yup gotta have those directions! Fun!
...and men hate to ask for directions.
Good luck to both of them. Good take on this weeks picture.
This is my favorite image for MM so far and you did it justice!
fantastic!!
any woman who has ever travelled anywhere with a man know this to be true
wonderful :)
it's always the way :)
This was probably the most unique this week-great job!
All dressed up and nowhere to go! Typical man. Too bad he doesn't have a GPS under that cape. LOL Love your take on this!
Wonderful concept!! I, too, was thinking GPS!
:)
Love your men and directions take on this one :)
I love it, Mom! :) I have my doubts that he will ask. I think he will say, "I'll watch our stuff while you go ask."
Also I'm betting he took a few 'shortcuts' that didn't pay off.
..
I think you are getting your groove on in these. Your characters are just bursting off the screen (and with so few words to make them come alive.)
Is Ana sure she wants Luis to ask another guy for directions?
Amen! I love it :)
oh no, poor Ana, men never ask for directions!
OK, OK, I've been in clueless Luis's shoes a time or two. I admit it. Now, where am I again?
Thanks for the chuckle. Have a great week.
Excellent, loved the read,
Yvonne.
Very funny. The eternal problem between men and women. I bet they were stuck in the desert forever.
A man ask for directions? She's more chance of winning the lottery! LOL
Very funny! I think I may have lived a story similar to this once or twice myself... ;)
"This is way too familiar," she said as she glanced over at hubby. :) UGG. :)
Thanks for the giggle and the walk down memory lane. hehe
Tell me the story after 6 hours...
No doubt or get a GPS...LOL!
Nice one. I like your different take on the pic. :O)
Typical! Very funny, too. :D
Hehe. Been there. That's such a good take on that picture!
Microfiction Mondays at your place are posts I genuinely look forward to every time I see one published. You are really good at those bursts of creativity.
That is very clever.
I'm a first time visitor to your blog but I'll definitely be back.
Brilliant! LOVED this!
Haha!!!
AHAHAHAHAHA! Reminds me of the first time Husband and I visited Geneva in Switzerland. He would NOT take a taxi from the station and the hotel was supposed to be ten minutes away...3 hours later we were still trundling our wheelie suitcases around the completely unknown city!!! I wasn't happy.
