sleeping in the car

We had eaten lunch
and were heading for home
after a wonderful weekend getaway.
 I was sitting in the sunlight with my book.

Reading had made me drowsy
and I gave in....
reared my seat back,
 propped my feet up on the dash,
put my camera bag behind my head
and to dreamland
 I went.

For some reason,
my head kept rolling off of 
the camera bag
over and over again
But I never fully woke up.
Strange that one can
sleep
 under those conditions.

Bubba said
when we got home
 that he had slept some
on the way home too.......
He was driving.

Don't ask me why we are
glowing gold
in the picture above.
I just don't know.
