Entire days went by that no words were spoken. Fine by me. I like the sounds of the river, the wind, and the animals.

We each knew what needed to be done, and we did it. No instruction manual needed. When camp was all set up, he went up with the sheep, full of the first meal I'd ever cooked in my life. I sure hoped he slept better that night than I did.

The next morning he bitched me out for his miserable night. Guess I better ask that Basque to bring us some bicarbonate of soda next Friday.

When I said breakfast was ready, he looked at it very closely. Wrinkling his nose, he examined every single thing I'd fried. And then he fell on the ground laughing.

Nobody never laughed at me right in front a my face before.

How long we gotta be up here together?
