what I did one day, and it started
me on a very interesting hobby.
This is how it happened:
Daddy and I had just come out
of an ungraded extension of Ritten-
house street NV, which we called

came to a clear, bubbling stream
and resolved to follow it. On either
side, huge. boulders, which resem-
bled lions, tigers, bears and other
animals, looked down on us. This,
we thought, must surely be hidden
