Coconut Grove I know places we can hide

@Slavik :)

Speedy had been to the coast many times but had not ever traveled quite this far west. As she moved through the sand, a cold ocean breeze moved through her thin coat, causing a small shiver to move down her lithe body. The days were getting colder, which lead to even colder nights. She was thankful to have Slavik around to keep her warm at night, but she knew soon that wouldn't be enough; she would need to find somewhere to settle for the winter. 

Right now, though, she was content to explore with her molten friend and the place they had stumbled on was intriguing. The trees here were different than the trees she had seen inland; they had long, skinny trunks and broad, fan-like leaves. As she moved closer to inspect the strange trees, she noticed large, brown, fibrous balls dotting the ground around them. She pawed the one closest to her, noting that it felt really hard. When she touched her nose to the strange object's surface, she pulled in a sweet, enticing scent. She lifted her head and turned to wherever Slavik had been investigating and asked, Have you ever seen one of these before? She lowered her head back to the object and with a shrug, opened her mouth and tried to bite into it. She found it to be just as hard as it felt. Lying down, she held the brown ball between her front paws and went to work trying to bite her way inside.
