Liz tagged me with this, and let me tell you… closest book? My desk is a bookshelf. So I used a little poetic license.
Pick up the nearest book.
Open on page 123.
Find the fifth sentence.
Post the next three sentences.
Tag five people, and acknowledge who tagged you.
So then. Endurance: Shackleton’s Incredible Voyage by Alfred Lansing
Page 123… fifth sentence… and the next three are…
Shackleton immediately ran back to camp, going from tent to tent shouting, “Land in sight! Land in sight!” The reaction was strange. Some men bounded out of their tents to see for themselves, but others - cold and discouraged and tired of mistaking distant bergs for land - refused to stir from their sleeping bags, at least until the sighting had been confirmed.
(In case you don’t know who Ernest Shackleton is.)
I’m not tagging five people.... I’m hardly awake enough to remember the names of five people. If you’d like to do this, please do!
