When I was a little girl.....
"When I was a little girl, I first saw Lake Union, surrounded by giant trees. There were deer runs and bear trails, and my parents warned me of cougars that lay on the branches of firs and cedars. I heard the cry of a cougar one night, and it sent chills racing over me."
Sophie Frye Bass, When Seattle Was a Village, 1947
