The red squirrel, diving
into a hole in the earth to avoid a bald eagle, dropped a seed that grew into a
fir tree and sent a root deep into the crack in a granite boulder, cleaving in
two the stone and sending half of the stone tumbling down a mountainside,
launching a landslide that slumped soil and stone and great trees across a
stream, which then pooled into a lake where trout grew large, eventually
attracting a man who loved fly fishing and who constructed a lodge alongside the
shore, where children gathered to feed seeds to red squirrels.
