Chapter One

HANGMAN'S TREE

Thurs. June 23rd

Bonjour Meme,

Once the thick fog lifted, which left everything damp, Me' Loss and I went exploring. I selected a warm pair of leather gloves, a nice pair of boots, fur-lined, and about my size, only a size too big, and a thick pair of socks from a dresser full of socks.

We followed a narrow trail behind the shack and now we've stopped at an old, dead tree on the border between the grasslands and the beach. I swear the tree has a hangman's rope ring around a thick, dead branch. It gives me the willies. The waves are crashing against the rocks at a little more than a football field away from Hangman's Tree.

I need to find a way back home. I miss ma mere more, and more everyday; and it hurts, especially at night, when its quiet.

We'll follow the trail down to the coast and continue our search.

Positive thoughts, meme.
