Going In

PHOTO PROMPT @ DAVID STEWART

They found the map to the treasure among the pages of an old book in his grandfather’s library. The search would be long and rigorous. Even though they had to brave the jungle to find it, they were on their way.

They slashed through vegetation and reached the great waterfalls on the treasure map. The treasure was supposed to be behind one of the waterfalls. Which one? Their native guide suggested the only way to find the treasure was to explore them one by one.

The guide said, ”Put on your wet gear. We’re going in.”

  1. Wet gear probably means something different to the treasure hunter than it does to the guide. No way on earth would I be doing that with a stranger who is probably holding a machete.
