You’ve just passaged the Coral Sea ... coral reefs should be a snap.And snap they will as there are visible reminders of previous encounters along t...e way. Any anchorage will find natives carrying local produce in tiny canoes intruding ... it’s all for sale or barter.Had no luck fishing? Some enterprising young lad will have lobster to sell ... they will be live, fresh and luscious. Want shrimp? Those will be hawked from small boats. Sometimes it’s impossible to avoid the islanders.The Deboyne. Black Wolf found another elk, and Snake brought in two antelope. It was again a happy camp that night, and neither man slept alone.The hunt the next day was not as good, since each man brought in only one antelope, but two antelope were enough to provide a fine repast for the whole group, men, women, and children.After supper, Morning Mist sought out Black Wolf for some serious discussion. "Black Wolf, I know that normally you would never consider it, but for the good of the village, I think. 0827, his birthday. The noise stopped at once, and he leaned his head on the beam giving a silent thank you.The bar was quiet except for the soft sound of the jukebox playing the list his dad had always kept playing on repeat.

At least I now know I have a dance partner, when you're around," she said with a smile.I nodded at her, returning her smile. I felt great! She was interested in me! I felt really good with what she had just said. We talked a bit more, and she moved from horse to horse, as we talked."You know, horses are fine; but if you want a work animal, nothing beats a Mule. Missouri Mules, to be exact," I said during a lull in the conversation."Mules? Whatever would you do with mules?" she asked.
