From: Covenant@yabbs To: all@yabbs Subject: part four pity Date: Sat Jul 2 04:00:19 1994 I've caught hell from many people for what we did next, but it was all that we could do. I swear this to you: It was all that could be done. It's a valley between those banks. Even a bulldozer couldn't get down in there and he was lying next to the creek that supplied all of our animals with fresh water. I rolled the junk tires down the hill while my Mom and Dad cut up the two elms that had been lying there for the last month or so. After 6 hours and 3 different fires, we took what was left and put it into garbage bags. I'll never forget that smell. Maybe it would have been better if you couldn't see it from the road. I started to thank god that my sister wouldn't be back until tommorow.
