Tell a Story Sunday
A Summer Adventure by Lian Nathaniel
They went to the food court to get some lunch. While they
were eating, Sally noticed the old lighthouse ruins on the hill behind her
brothers. The children had heard all kinds of spooky fun stories about the
lighthouse. It would be a great place to hide something. She told her idea to
the boys and they thought it was a good one. They ran home and got some ropes
and a flashlight. The ground around the lighthouse could be steep.
They got to the trail and looked up at the ruins. Jerry saw
that stones in what was left of the buildings were old and grey. Mike thought
it looked like it might have been built by ancient elves like the towers in
Lord of the Rings. Sally thought she could imagine the tower whole, when it still
guided ships around the rocky barrier that made Gilmore’s beaches so calm.
The kids began to make their way up the trail. It was broken
in some places so they climbed up the rocks to get around the rough parts. The
kids were having a great time. “Race you!” Jerry called back. They kept going
up laughing as they went and then, “AAAHHHHH!”.
