1. My impressions of Bright Morning's new home, Senora and Rosita, were that I thought I liked it the first couple pages. Until when Nehana wanted them to go to church in ten days. now I want them to get away from that place.

2. Bright morning thinks that she likes the food a little bit, since there is alot of it. She also liked that she could let her balck dog into her room. Also she liked Rosita until a certain point.

3. Bright Morning doesn't smile at the party because if she did smile, Senora might like her and keep her for her slave.

4. Rosita tells Bright Morning that she'll love the fiesta, Easter, and she would serve the people there.

5. Nehana's apperence at the fiesta caused Bright Mornings alarm, and maybe the Long Knives, too.

6. The encounter of the wood counter was that she saw him, and he asked Nehana what they were doing there. Soon, he reconized the horses and he threatened the two that he would tell the Long Knives were they were going to go. Then he said if they went North, he'd tell them West, and finally he spit out that he just needed a bit for his horse. Nehana refused because she couldn't ride her horse without a bit, and galloped her horse off, leaving the man sprawling on the gorund since he was holding Nehana's horse's reins. bright morning followed her in a gallop, too. I do think this will effect their escape because the woodcutter probably got mad and wanted to tell the Long knives where the went after they went looking for Bright Morning and Nehana.

7. The girls see three men riding their horses down the stream, instead of where they thought they would go, and now they knew that they would get caught. Or they atlest thought so.
