“First, you must go to your room and quietly fill up your hiking pack with clothing for both warm and cold weather. Lay out a set of good clothes to change into just before you leave, as well as your best hiking boots. Gather up all of the camping equipment you can carry comfortably and tie it to your pack. Finally, go down to the pantry and get a good bundle of dried meat, fruits and vegetables. When your packing is complete, hide your pack out in the woodshed.”
The boy nodded. He was a pretty experienced camper due to his accompanying his father and uncles on two and three day fishing trips up at Wide River.
“When you are done with that, you must go spend some time with your parents. Do not tell them you are leaving. I shall explain everything to them once you are gone. Try not to be sad when you are around them, because I’m sure you’ll see them again sooner than you think. Finally, when your friends return to the inn for dinner, you must talk to them in private and tell them everything. Should either of them decide not to go with you, you must leave immediately. Do you understand?”
Again, Dree nodded. They would go with him, he knew it.
