Anyway, I thought it was a good idea, but _good night_, it got me into a kind of a scrape.
That's one thing about me, I'm always getting in scrapes.
So then I took Skinny and we climbed in through the galley window.

I guess nobody noticed us; nobody said anything except El Sawyer.

He asked me if I was going to get supper.
"Supper!" I said.

"Didn't you just have dinner ?" Honest, that fellow never thinks of anything except eats.
When we got into the galley, I said to Skinny, "Let's sit up on the board so we can look out and see the bay." So we sat on the board that was on two barrels.

I used it to open cans on and slice bread and all that.
