It was another exciting day for the three musketeers to explore Deep Cove. The pals arrived early to catch the low tide and prowl the beach while it was still theirs. Then the cruise was on. It felt good to make the uncertain voyage, with bumpy waves lapping their sturdy vessel. Mysterious sea creatures with long tentacles lurked dangerously close, just below the murky surface. Tales of pirates filled their minds.
All too soon, they were back on shore, picking their way among clumps of menacing barnacles, exhausted yet satisfied, with fond memories of how buddies shared a journey together.
