Quote context

[...]

- We're going out of town for a couple of days and I just remembered some friends said they might stop by and I thought they might like to join us. So, I wanted them to know where we were.

- All right, sir.

- Now, maybe you could just stick a note in our door where they'll see it... we're going to Caribou Lake.

- And we'll be in the cottage at the very top of the mountain, it's right straight up a dirt road from the lake. They can't miss it.

- Caribou Lake, the cottage at the top of the mountain, up the dirt road from the lake. Is that all?

- Yes, thank you, that's all.

- Caribou Lake is nothing more than a general store where you can buy bait, hire boats and cottages.

- That time of year, there's hardly anybody there, except the people who own the store.

- The cottage we had was a good three miles away up a twisting dirt road running above the lake, but you could see it very plain even at night when the lights are on.

- We stopped in the store, we both went in to buy what we needed: food, kerosene, matches, things like that.

- Then we went on up the mountain, but that time it was almost dark...

- Joe fixed something to eat, but neither of us could touch it.
