Whitefish River There's nothing that I wouldn't do

Perhaps it would have been more exciting if they hadn't been here a little while ago. For some of the trip over, Nutmeg had been happy to zoom right along on and off the track as they went along, but she started to slow as the path turned down a familiar path. 

Look, last time they came this way, they got left somewhere unfamiliar -- which was cool for like three hours until she realized that they weren't allowed to do as much fun stuff. She didn't know why because she was nonverbal and not a prodigy or anything -- but they couldn't go rampaging around and pretty much had to stay there at the den and that was now lame. They hadn't done anything wrong! And mom just left them here!

So as they came to a stop at the den, she looked up to Ira with a particularly suspicious glance. Nutmeg was gonna be a lot harder to make stay here if she had any funny ideas...
