    build a cabin. He had learned how to make a campfire and how to cook. So he had a basic working knowledge of wilderness survival. But this was not Tennessee and out here what you didn't know would kill you! So Travis paid close attention to what the old man had to say. If he had lived this long out here, he must know something! Shortly after he began helping the old man, he was sent to the fort's trading post - a small mercantile shop that sold just about everything needed for life in the fort and surrounding area. He was going for a few supplies that day that the old man needed, but couldn't bring back himself. Travis went into the trading post and rang the little bell on the counter. But instead of the crotchety old shopkeeper he was expecting (and was warned about), a beautiful, slim Indian girl appeared from around the corner. "I help you?" she asked. She was a very pretty woman, about 5'4" tall and 116 lbs., with a shapely 32-22-33 figure, waist long dark brown hair and hazel eyes. She spoke in broken English, but had enough of a command of it to make herself understood.

Over the next few months, Travis learned a lot from the old man. And in return, he helped him do some of the things he was too old or too tired to do. One of these was to get supplies. So he had reason to visit the trading post several times. Most of the time the shopkeeper was there, but on rare occasions he would be out delivering to other parts of the fort or some of the homesteads nearby outside the fort walls. It was these rare occasions that Travis liked the best because it gave him a chance to talk to Little Deer. Travis found the Indian woman fascinating and her broken English only served to make her all the more interesting. He wished he could spend more time with her, but she was always timid and nervous - and judging by how she acted when the shopkeeper around, for good reason. So he took whatever time and conversation he could get from her. After all, as soon as he could he was leaving anyway, and wouldn't be back for a long time. One particular day, Travis was at the trading post getting a few things and the shopkeeper was away on a trip to the next fort down the line, resupplying his storehouse. Travis was delighted - that would mean he could actually spend some time with Little Deer without her worrying about the shopkeeper coming back unexpectedly! Travis told her wanted he needed to ...
