I stared in amazement. I had never seen so many people at one gathering.
Tents were spread out over an acre and a half of ground; all colors, shapes, and sizes.
There were odd-looking cars, buggies, wagons, and saddle horses.
I heard Grandpa say almost in a whisper, “I knew there would be a lot of people here but I never expected so many.”
I saw the astonished look on my father’s face. Off to one side of the camp, under a large black gum tree, we set up our tent.
I tied my dogs to the buggy, and fixed a nice bed for them under it.
After everything was taken care of, I asked if I could look around the camp.
“Sure,” Grandpa said. “Go any place you want to go, only don’t get in anyone’s way.”
I started walking through the large camp. Everyone was friendly.
Once I heard a voice say, “That’s the boy who owns the two little red hounds. I’ve heard they’re pretty good.”
If my head had gotten any bigger, I know it would have burst.
I walked on, as straight as a canebrake cane. I looked at the hounds.
