part 60 of the Expanded Blue Mountain Stories series: Blue Mountain


The morning sun warmed her face, and Goodie Reynolds stretched and arched cat-like, fully rested and ready to go. Avarice, her mother’s crow flew in the opened window and lit next to her face and squawked, “Danger! Sleep! Sleep! Danger!” and he burrowed under her blanket and hid next to her body.
