SIX SENTENCE STORIES 02/25/16
This week we meet out intrepid adventurers attempting to make good and proper use of the cue word: CLEAVE.
JUNGLE
“Mike, how was your trip through the jungle?” Adam asked.
“It was exciting and challenging!”
“In what way?”
“I saw a lot of snakes, tigers, panthers, monkeys, and we slept under the stars every night.”
“Dad taught me how to pitch a tent, hunt for our food, cook over an open fire, and wash my clothes in a river.”
“The most challenging , but fun part was using a machete to cleave a path through all the brush.”

They always make that look so easy in adventure movies as they slash their way through dense growth. It looks like hard work to me, but for a young person it would be a grand adventure indeed!

I agree! It wouldn’t be what I would call fun, but for a young boy, he thought it was fantastic. Thanks for reading and commenting.

funny that…. I hated and still hate to camp anywhere! BUT I do recall camping once with my uncle and his family and him teaching us to get through the tall razor grass with a machete… it was my favorite part of the trip… stupid now that I think of him giving a machete to a kid my age!

I would hate to camp in the jungle! Back when we were younger, there was a lot less fear of danger when it came to teaching kids things that required a bit of danger while learning! Now you can’t even ride a bicycle without the need of a helmet, let alone use a machete to cut your way through some brush.
