After hunting for several hours, we finally saw a large seal sunning itself on a flat rock.

I took
one of the wooden clubs while Larry took the longer one. We slowly snuck up behind the seal
until we were close enough to club it over its head. The seal slumped over and died. This seal
would help us survive. We could eat the meat and fat. The fat could be burned in a shell for light
and the fur could be used to make a blanket. We declared our first day of hunting a great
success.
The house was located at the top of the hill at the end of a winding road. It wasn't obvious that
the house was there, but everyone in town knew that it existed. They were just all too afraid to
ever go and see it in person.
The river slowly meandered through the open space. It had hidden secrets that it didn't want to
reveal. It had a well-planned strategy to appear calm, inviting, and appealing. That's how the
river lured her unknowing victims to her water's edge.
Breastfeeding is good for babies and moms. Infants that are breastfed get antibodies from their
mothers against common illnesses. Breastfed babies have less chance of being obese as an
adult. Breastfeeding a baby lets the infant-mother pair bond in a very unique way. Mother’s who
breastfeed lower their chances of developing breast cancer. Usually, mothers who breastfeed
lose their pregnancy weight more quickly and easily. The benefits of breastfeeding are
numerous.
He couldn't move. His head throbbed and spun. He couldn't decide if it was the flu or the
drinking last night. It was probably a combination of both.
His mother had always taught him not to ever think of himself as better than others. He'd tried to
live by this motto. He never looked down on those who were less fortunate or who had less
money than him. But the stupidity of the group of people he was talking to made him change his
mind.
There wasn't a whole lot more that could be done. It had become a wait-and-see situation with
the final results no longer in her control. That didn't stop her from trying to control the situation.
She demanded that things be done as she desperately tried to control what couldn't be.
He swung back the fishing pole and cast the line which ell 25 feet away into the river. The lure
landed in the perfect spot and he was sure he would soon get a bite. He never expected that the
bite would come from behind in the form of a bear.
Turning away from the ledge, he started slowly down the mountain, deciding that he would, that
very night, satisfy his curiosity about the man-house. In the meantime, he would go down into
the canyon and get a cool drink, after which he would visit some berry patches just over the
ridge, and explore among the foothills a bit before his nap-time, which always came just after
the sun had walked past the middle of the sky. At that period of the day the sun’s warm rays
seemed to cast a sleepy spell over the silent mountainside, so all of the animals, with one
accord, had decided it should be the hour for their mid-day sleep.
"Can I get you anything else?" David asked. It was a question he asked a hundred times a day
and he always received the same answer. It had become such an ingrained part of his daily
routine that he had to step back and actively think when he heard the little girl's reply. Nobody
had before answered the question the way that she did, and David didn't know how he should
respond.
