Day 1 (12-7-15) Pages 1-21 Chapters 1-2
Historical Fact In Prologue:no I did not and I found it interesting because it's true
First impression after Chapter 1: very interesting I like it because it's about Maine and the game wardens it painted a pretty clear picture in my head of like the Maine woods and all the detail
Quote I connect to:"like a few youngs boys I view my dad as a strong man" this important because my dad raised me and my brother all on his own when my mom and dad got a divorce.
Suspicious Character: dead river inn, shaved head man "militia freak" deputy
Second impression After Chapter 2: the book is getting interesting and weird. What happened in day 1 and 2 the game warden got a call about a pig getting killed by a bear and invests gated it and when he got home it was a message from his father he hadn't heard from in 2 years. Chapter 2 the main character and his girlfriend and his dad go and get drinks at a bar and a bar fight happens and the father goes to jail for a night but the charges get dropped.

Identity (Mike defines himself in opposition to his dad, is there someone who you have made yourself the opposite of, or who you have used as a role model?): I'm really the opposite of my brother for a whole we're alike because we were into the same things and what not but now me and him are very different he wants to be a pharmacist and I wanna be a welder he doesn't car what vehicle he has I want a big lifted truck he's into nerdy video game stuff I'm really not

His dad got a 2 hour head start on the trackers and he might be roughly 10 miles from the trackers. Dad holds hermit hostage shits have been fired. Hermit fires shots to more than likely distract the police and let Jack get away.
Important info to murder: they went a back road instead of the normal road so someone had info about it. So had to have known about there route change
Day 5 (12-17-15)
Vocab word of the day: Recluse
A hermit and a person who lives alone in the woods for the most part.
Famous Hermit from Maine- the man lived in the olds for 27 years and stole from out of season hunting camps apfor food and that only. He got caught by a spot light and went ahead and got 7 months in jail. He only spoke to one person throughout those 27 years. His tent was 600 yards away from the nearest residence.
3-5 Tips on escaping Trackers in Maine Woods- wear rubber boots, hard areas to walk, zig zag through rivers, use deer urine,
Maine Suspect? Jack or russel because they lose aLot to wendigo timber
Relationship to death-
Because it's out in the woods your all alone you don't have to worry about much except getting another call and maybe because it just he might feel bad for all the dead animals
Day 6 (12/21/15)
Vivid Snapshot written like a passage from Mike Bowditch novel:
Vernon tripp: paranoid milita freak, at the guy that got thrown out of the meeting, also owns a trading post, he thinks everything he try's to do is controlled by the paper company, protesting windigo earlier that summer.made a verbal threat before he left.
The bear is like his dad because he wants to protect it and make sure it safe and nothing bad has happened to and it's also very elusive and he cannot seem to catch it.the bear is a symbol of his dad running away from the police and from him for so long he can't catch them
The last winter I spent in Maine my mom and dad were still together-before my mother packed me and my brother to move to Montana- he kept an old snowmobile out back that we used everyone and then. Other times we used it we would check the ice for thickness. Also the snowmobile smelt like old gas and oil he told me to never touch the gas cap because it leaked gas and he didn't want me getting gas on my gloves while I held on. My mom hated the snowmobile sometimes. I watched him many hours changing the spark plugs and other components.
One day me and my dad just went out. Normally the ice was thick out back. We were going down back on the river and then we habit a soft spot and went through. I don't remember much of the walk back or anything I remeber just waking up to the sound of the neighbors four wheelers towing it back up the trail.
possible suspects:dad, skin head,
