Scent

Dew lay thick on the rough blades of grass under the fresh morning sun that sprayed through the clouds and slanted into the windows of the Volvo. Carefully, I unfolded myself. I didn't wish to wake up my fellow travelers. It was still early and last night had lasted far too long. Looking out the car windows, I could see corn cobs, dented tin cans, and empty plastic bags strewn across the ground. The scent of an easy hunt had attracted a bear... or maybe two.
