There is no lake at Camp Green Lake. There once was a very large lake here, the largest lake in Texas. That was over a hundred years ago. Now it is just a dry, flat wasteland.
There used to be a town of Green Lake as well. The town shriveled and dried up along with the lake, and the people who lived there.
During the summer the daytime temperature hovers around ninety-five degrees in the shade-if あなた can find any shade. There’s not much shade in a big dry lake.
The only trees are two old oaks on the eastern edge of the “lake.” A hammock is stretched between the two trees, and a log キャビン stands behind that.
The campers are forbidden to lie in the hammock. It belongs to the Warden. The Warden owns the shade.
Out on the lake, rattlesnakes and scorpions find shade under rocks and in the holes dug によって the campers.
Here's a good rule to remember about rattlesnakes and scorpions: If あなた don't bother them, they won't bother you.
Usually.
Being bitten によって a サソリ, スコーピオン または even a rattlesnake is not the worst thing that can happen to you. あなた won't die.
Usually.
Sometimes a camper will try to be bitten によって a scorpion, または even a small rattlesnake. Then he will get to spend a 日 または two recovering in his tent, instead of having to dig a hole out on the lake.
But あなた don't want to be bitten によって a yellow-spotted lizard.
That's the worst thing that can happen to you. Ypu will die a slow and painful death.
Always.
If あなた get bitten によって a yellow-dotted lizard, あなた might as well go into the shade of the oak trees and lie in the hammock.
There is nothing anyone can do to あなた anymore.
