Deep Freeze

Deep Freeze book cover — For Ben N and Ben V The Bens

Deep Freeze — page 1 — 1 The day of the disaster it was twenty degrees below zero with snow that showed no sign of letting up Most of Zach’s friends had left for warm spring break vacations while Zach and his dad decided they would go ice fishing A beach vacation was sounding much more appealing considering the way this trip was starting off The temperature was dropping by the minute and Zach was more likely to get frostbite than a suntan This place was almost in Canada and it was freezing No palm trees or sand here All he could see from the window of his little cabin was blowing snow 1

Deep Freeze — page 2 — Zach balled his freezing hands into fists and saw by the glowing red numbers on his watch that his dad was over two hours late Normally they would have driven up together but Zach’s dad was out of town on a work trip so they had decided they would drive separately and meet at the cabin Zach had planned to open up the cabin get groceries and have everything all set by the time his dad arrived But when the snow started coming down harder Zach skipped the grocery store and headed straight to the cabin to get the heater going He wasn’t hungry at the time having just polished off a bag of tortilla chips on the drive up but by now his stomach was growling He wished his dad would show up so they could go get some food Zach walked over to the fridge to check if there was anything to eat But even as he pulled open the handle he knew it was probably no use Empty His dad was always meticulous about clearing any food out of the fridge before they left 2
