I'll admit I spent a few weeks worried about that very thing happening, but I live in the city. It didn't take long to convince myself that if it had followed me home someone would have spotted it. It'd be all over the news. Not to mention eagles actually hunt during the daytime. Night was when I felt the safest.

I think if that thing wanted me dead, I'd have never made it off Rainier . . . It either got stuck in my blind, or decided I wasn't worth the hassle.
