Summary
Burt was tired of taking his family out to the asteroids for a picnic every week-end. But with a wife and two spoiled brats to goad him into the regular routine, what could a man do? Only, as it turned out, this particular picnic wasn't quite regular routine!

Burt reached out for the stud that would fire the fore-rockets, but a small white hand already rested on the button.
"Let me, Daddy. You promised?"
When he wanted something, Johnny's voice took on that wailing quality. He wanted something now; Burt had promised him that he could land the ship.
