Woman of Courage
“The knowledge that Buck was sleeping outside their tent and had agreed to be their guide gave her a measure of hope and peace that she’d not had in many days. Instead of waking up every hour or so, thinking she’d heard something, Amanda slept until the sweet singing of birds awoke her.
She stepped from the tent, feeling renewed of body, mind, and spirit. Stretching, Amanda looked toward the sunrise and breathed in the dawn’s cool air. It was a glorious morning, with a sky so bright and blue it nearly took her breath away. This place reminded her of the lake near her home in New York, where she had often gotten up early just to catch a glimpse of the sun rising, its soft colors reflecting in the water.
Amanda rubbed both arms. It was a bit chilly, but all too soon the day would warm up, and any shade they found would be most welcome.
She walked toward the campfire, fully expecting to see Buck stretched out by the log where he’d placed a sleeping mat the night before. To her surprise, h...e was not there.MoreLess
