Waiting for the moment when we were able to jump into the raft, and head down stream. Savoring our feet splashing in the chilly water.

I was assigned to a raft with my brother, my friend, and the river guide. The adults went in another. About an hour after we left, we made our first stop; an enormous rock midstream. We sat there for several minutes hopped back into the raft a .....

In The Odyssey he conquers a monster using smarts and strength. He also looks out for his crew mates. He is faithful to his wife, well, in his mind he is. He kills many men on his own in a .....

.... deformed, unfinished. This deformity would be an outward indication to the audience of the disharmony from Nature and viciousness of his spirit.
