Excerpt: ...care of those that are hurt, first thing a man does is gather the materials and tools to fix things up again.

That was when they began to realize this was more than the desolation following a cyclone or other freak of nature. Cal wanted to know what happened?

He gave in to her scolding, because she was right, and came out from behind his tree. It seemed more than passing strange to be walking down that slope naked, in plain sight of everybody.
