This was the last class assignment. We were to tell a story based on a dream. This story has a half-truth. My mother put me in a basket and placed me on a picnic table outside our home in the Columbia River Gorge. I was sleeping and she returned to her house work. She happened to look out the kitchen window only to see a bear on the table looking at me as if I were lunch. Mother, "Yellow Hawk", ran out screaming and scared the bear away.
