A family in the green desert

This feels like a short story to me. The sound of the road, the music on the radio and the sudden blurry glimpse of the first camel in a small band of babies, parents, brothers, sisters, aunts and uncles. The drivers slows, then stops, takes in the scene, then life moves on.

UPDATE:  Alas.  Removed from youtube because of a terms of use violation.  It was lovely though.  Perhaps I’ll find another that captures that same sort of moment.   “Terms of use” has me wondering.  Was this actually from a movie?  Was one of my favorite “real life” moments not so real?  Ah, the modern condition.
