I was lying up against that big oak tree for almost a year. You talk about boring? You think you know boring? That was boring. I didn"t see or hear a single person in all that time.
I did see lots of critters. I even had an opossum curl up with me for a couple of nights. I saw lots of raccoons, squirrels, mice, and a deer or two and I had more than a couple of snakes slither across this old body.
I did see one dog. He had a bell hanging off of his collar and he was hunting hard. He went right by me without a glance. I heard a couple of shots shortly after he went by, but, nobody came this way. Darn the luck. I almost wish that deer hunter would have seen me. Any port in a storm.
Storms? Did I say “storms”? My goodness I"ve seen it all now; snow storms, ice storms, and terrible, horrible
