We were out in the country, about a
quarter mile off the main road, and
the nearest house was about a half
mile away, and out of sight.
Of course it would be unsafe to sleep
outside nowadays, [anywhere].
We never feared Human's but there
were always stories about mad dogs,
Panthers, or other wild animals that
might come around and eat you up.
But not to fear, my trusty dog, Bulger,
was right by my side. At the first hint
of danger, he was on his feet . . .
whimpering and heading for his frady
hole under the house. |
In this picture, my baby Nephew, is less
than a year old and I am 12.
