"Just now we're planning to try to take the canoe up to Lake Pleasant for a while." "Bully place, the lake," said Mart approvingly.

"I'm going up there Monday.

Going to be gone for a couple of days." "How are you going to get there ?" Dick asked with interest.
"You know my Uncle Billy, don't you ?" asked Mart.
