sixty degrees on that compass; that’s three hundred sixty different directions. One of those directions would take me back to camp, and maybe forty of them would get me close enough that I could find the camp. That still left three hundred twenty wrong directions I could take.

In the longleaf forest at mid-morning, the birds and the bugs didn’t seem to be making music; they were all business. Millions of organic motors were revving up and drowning out any hope I might have of hearing the electric motors back at the campgrounds.
