The Bear

 

Once upon a time long ago there was a boy whose name was David. He really liked going out hunting, and one day he asked his father to bring him out bear hunting. His father said yes, so they got ready and packed up all the things they needed. After they took all their things to the boat they took off to search for a bear. As they were looking for the bear it started to get dark. So they both decided to camp until sunrise, and put up their tent. Then they got out their sleeping bags and got ready for bed. While they slept they dreamed of catching a very big bear.

The next morning they woke up bright and early to hunt for the bear. But even though they were out for that whole day they never saw a bear. So they decided to go back to their camp and to stay out in the country until they caught a bear.

The third day they were out there they saw a bear but missed it when they shot at it. David and his father went out looking for the bear but didn't see it because it got too scared and ran very far away. It was getting dark so they decided to go back to their camp. Just as they got to their camp David saw a bear right next to their tent. He yelled to his father and they started to shoot at it. They got lucky and they hit the bear. They stayed up very late that night skinning the bear, and after they were done they put the bear into their boat and went to bed.

The next morning they got up bright and early again and ate some breakfast. After they were done eating they packed up all their things and went home. When they got home David's mother was very happy to see them. They unpacked their gear from the boat and hung up the bear skin to dry. Then they cut up the meat and put some in the freezer and gave some away to their relatives. It was a good hunt.
