"I'm sorry, Helen. The holiday season wasn't as good as we'd hoped. The economy is still in the dumps. Sales were down. We're going to have to let you go." She looked at Bill in shock. "Let me go? You mean fire me?" "Not fire you. Lay you off. It's not the same thing. We'll be happy to give you a good reference when you're looking for another job." "But w...
"How far up is this place you're taking me?" asked Harleigh, who was carrying one of the two picnic baskets. "It's just up another couple of turns of this trail. Trust me, when we get up there, the view will blow you away," replied Thomas, who was carrying the other. About fifteen minutes later, they arrived at the top of the peak, and Harleigh exclaimed,...
