It is dark, like a cave. In order to escape, I have to climb up this huge wall, about 60 feet high. It is very frightening, there isn't much to hold on to, and no protection.
I get to the top, but my dog Sydney is still down at the bottom, and she has no way to get up. No way could she make that climb. There is a small platform that is suspended by ropes and a pulley; maybe we could get on that, and I could pull us both up? But that would be really difficult, and there wouldn't be any safety. What if I couldn't pull on the rope any more, and we fell? |
