Sally loved to chase seagulls.

It was a special kind of thrill that she only ever experienced when she ran after the gulls. Probably something like a skydiver would feel when they jumped out of a plane at 30,000 feet.

“Sally!” her mother would protest, “Why do you always have to chase those poor birds?”
