Teton Splendor
“Thin wisps of smoke rose skyward between the trees, the only indication that the Bannock village was around the bend of the waterway. Rather than wait in camp for Sophie’s private meeting with Two Bears to end, a solitary ride was just what he needed to mull things over in his mind. Up ahead, an old abandoned beaver lodge hindered the water from flowing along its original course. The creek had long ago altered its channel around the dam.
With his eyes scanning ahead, and his ears trained on any... unusual sounds, Joseph dismounted his horse and allowed the gelding to drink from the water. With his rifle cradled in the crook of his arm, he wandered through the thick sage. What did he expect to find? If the shooter had followed him and Sophie today, this provided a perfect opportunity to take another shot. The man could be concealed behind any one of the numerous conifers that blanketed this area.
His mind wandered to Two Bears. Disturbed at the frail condition of his long-time friend, Joseph wished he had returned sooner.MoreLess
