Late afternoon on the day before the busses came to take the team to Humboldt County. Griff and Akoni were loading gear into a ‘77 Chevy truck camper donated by a Board member after the Board looked at the prices of new football equipment gear trucks.

Wearing a tight black leather short skirt and a pink cashmere sweater, Phoebe brushed her silky auburn hair, stepped out of a chrome blue rental car, walked past the football field, where beside the camper, Griff and Akoni were discussing providing personal packing lists for players, something that had been woefully neglected on last year’s Rogue River trip, and that in the excitement of the newly arrived gear truck had once again been forgotten.

“Perhaps she needs directions”, Akoni said. But, in Alberta Phoebe had encountered many men with Chevy camper trucks, and men with camper trucks were not whom she sought in California.

Big Dog was on his way to the cafeteria when a woman walked by. She was wearing pink plastic sandals; clear silken tights shimmered on her long shapely legs. . Since pink plastic sandals were not what Huygens coeds were wearing that Fall, Big Dog thought that she would stop and ask him for directions to the cafeteria, but she kept on walking.
