2 people riding off into the sunset

[2 people on horses ride off into the sunset after an amazing adventure]

"Wow, what an amazing adventure."

"Yes, I must say that was something special. I hope that our next one is that good."

"Any idea where that one might be?"

"Well, that's where we are riding right now. Another one is always around the corner if you are looking."

"Can I ask you something?"

"Yeah, go ahead."

"Why in the hell are we riding at night? I mean, the sun is going to set in like 5 minutes and then we won't be able to see where we are going. Couldn't we have just stayed in town another day?"

"Oh, just ride along and shut up."

"And if we can find adventure anywhere then why can't we just stay in town and wait for it? Do we really have to seek it out?"

"Do you really want to go back there? Everybody knows us back there and they saw what we can do. There are no suprises, we would just be sitting around doing nothing back there? Is that what you want, a whole life of nothing?"

"Well, I'm just saying that we could stay in a warm bed and get some more whiskey."

"Get some more whiskey, warm bed? What is wrong with you? What happened to adventure? You want to live a life of sitting around doing the same stuff?"

"No, not really, but I'm just saying.."

"Just shut up. Here, let's set up camp here for the night, it's getting too dark to keep riding."
