I am feeling generous and I did buy a new axe for this camping trip. So, I could stick to the prior agreement and just work a little harder to find some dry trees to chop.' 'I appreciate your generosity 🙂 I think that bringing your axe would be a great idea! Also be sure to pack warm clothes and extra blankets! I'm sure we will both be fine'
Utterance: 'You are welcome! 🙂 I am happy that we reached an agreement! Did you happen to see any dry looking trees on along your way?'
