[00:00.81]It was hot in the valley, [00:02.44]hotter still in San Bernadino, [00:04.46]and it was still hot at five thousand feet, [00:06.95]fifteen miles up [00:07.79]the high-gear road to Puma Lake. [00:10.44]I had done forty of the fifty miles of curving [00:12.99]twisting highway before it started to cool off, [00:15.89]but it didn't really get cool [00:17.67]until I reached the dam and started [00:19.38]along the south shore of the lake [00:21.32]past the piled-up granite boulders [00:23.31]and the sprawled camps in the flats beyond. [00:26.24]It was early evening [00:27.36]when I reached Puma Point and [00:29.08]I was as empty as a gutted fish. [00:32.39]The Indian Head Hotel was a brown [00:34.17]building on corner,opposite a dance hall. [00:37.02]I registered,carried my suitcase upstairs [00:39.39]and dropped it in a bleak, [00:40.85]hard-looking room with an oval rug [00:42.23]on the floor,a double bed in the corner, [00:45.09]and nothing on the bare pine wall [00:46.73]but a hardware-store calendar all curled up [00:49.42]from the dry mountain summer.

[00:54.98]I gobbled down what they called [00:56.79]the regular dinner, [00:58.41]drank a brandy to sit on it, [00:59.79]and went out... [01:02.00]The phone office was a log cabin, [01:04.20]and there was a booth in the corner [01:05.66]with a coin-in-the-slot telephone. [01:07.92]I shut myself inside and dropped my nickel [01:10.20]and dialed 2306.A woman's voice answered. [01:10.20]
