STORY
From before-time … san'beach people … we talk in the sand. Today-now … those old girls … you go out camping with one or two of them old girls … sit down round the fire … they just yarn 'bout before-time. They go yarn and draw in the sand. They know everything from before-time. They know family ways … how you're related … which family side you're from … who you can go with. They know country for everyone too … land country … sea country. They yarn for we'pla young ones … so we understand …want us to know … we'll have to yarn for our kids and grandkids. Those old girls … they sit there on san'beach … draw in the sand to show us young ones … we got to understand.
