130Story: Smile / Envy / Hand / Sweet / Climb
The rules of 130Story are simple: given a random seed word, write a story in 130 characters.
Smile
Why the grin? Mustn't tell but I've quit. Me and Di are gonna open a little caff. Planning it for yonks. Now I can't stop smiling. @130story

Envy
Sure, New Jersey is the Garden State. And Vermont is the healthiest state in the whole US. But Nevada? Everything's green with NV. @130story

Hand
We'd walk to reception, hand in hand. We'd walk to infants, holding hands at the crossing. We walk to juniors, hands in pockets. @130story

Sweet
That poor guy died years ago, didn't he? From the drink, they say. That left the three of them. Geddit, a three piece? Never mind. @130story

Climb
You couldn't miss it. A training mast for the sailors, 140 feet high. All us local kids had to climb it. I still can't do ladders. @130story
