Quotes by Tara Ellis (?)

“Her mother gave her strict instructions to follow the school phone policy and not use it until after the final bell rings. If she violates the rules and the phone is taken away, she won’t get any sympathy from her parents.”

“It’s December 19th, and the Yakima is speeding towards Orcas Island. Located in the picturesque Puget Sound, off the coast of Washington State; it’s one of four islands accessible by the ferry system.”

“The sun is directly overhead, highlighting the beauty of the woods. Butterflies float through the beams of light, landing briefly on wildflowers before coasting to the next small splashes of color. Ferns nearly as tall as the girls nestle at the bases of huge evergreens, blending into the bright, green moss that hugs the bark.”
