Don't Mess with Retirees by BethShelby
80 Word Flash Fiction contest entry

George, at 70, retired to the family farm. He decided to check out his pond beyond the apple orchard. Grabbing a bucket, he started the long walk, thinking he’d check for apples on the way back.

On arriving, he found some local girls skinny dipping. Seeing him, they yelled, “Sorry for trespassing, but we can’t get out till you leave.”

“Stay in as long as you like,” he said, holding up the bucket. “I’m just here to feed my gator.”
