Treasure Map
Before we left on our trip, four of our little ones plotted to join us.
Descole and Ryder invited Aidan and Jasmine over to discuss their upcoming trip.
"Wait till you see what we found!" Ryder exclaimed when they answered the door.
"What is it?" Aidan asked, excited.
The Wall brothers led their guests to a large chest brimming with all kinds of strange and interesting things.
"It's a treasure chest," Ryder pointed to the loot.
"And this book says 'Our Adventure Book' on the cover," he added, lifting the old volume carefully from the dust.
Together the four tromped back to the living room to settle on the couch and get a better look at the book.
"Who're those guys?" Ryder peered over Descole's shoulder at the pictures within the pages.
"I think that's our dad," Descole considered carefully, "and Uncle Rocky. Look, they signed it."
"'I have hidden the treasure map in the trunk,'" Aidan quoted direct from the page.
"Let's go find it!" Jasmine exclaimed enthusiastically, startling the boys.
However, they all agreed that her idea was a good one, so they trucked back to the treasure chest to 'nose around' as Brick would say.
"Is that it?" Ryder pointed.
"Yep, looks like it," Descole pulled out the stone map.
"Where do you think it leads?" Aidan asked.
"I don't know," Ryder frowned.
"It says 'Goblin Valley.' Isn't that where we're going?" Jasmine wondered.
"Sure is," Descole nodded. "Let's take it with us and see if we can't find the treasure."
As our four stalwart adventurers sat on the couch, inspecting the map and discussing their trip, they didn't realize that they were being watched from the shadows.
"A grand adventure and a fabulous treasure?" Midas mused from his hiding place. "Sounds like maybe I should tag along."
