Book Cover & Preview Text
Two days later, Simon grabs his thermos of coffee and a cherry danish, and he carries his cooler down the narrow dock for a hopeful day of crabbing. He's hopeful today for a plentiful catch, but he is also hopeful for the sight of his friend "Lucky". The lonely days of crabbing have become entertaining and fulfilling with his faithful companion. It has been said on the coast for many years that “seagulls carry the souls of lost sailors.” Perhaps Lucky is reminding Simon of lessons from the souls.
