Skull Rock

By Dawn Joy Marks

Kelly and Chip are off to an unexpected adventure when Chip spies a Native American Indian up at Skull Rock in Bayside Bluffs Park. Is he the Medicine Man of local folklore who resides in the hills, a ghost, or . . . connected to the UFO sightings around the gulf coast of Florida? On one of their treks up to Skull Rock, they get caught in a thunderstorm, seek shelter under a cliff ledge, and fall into a secret cave. They have entered the Otherworld, a place of magic and mystery. In this sacred place, Kelly and Chip meet Xandu, a Shaman who enhances their knowledge of anthropology, astronomy, and the connection between ancient cultures. He teaches them about their own Native American heritage and initiates them into apprentice shamans. Kelly and Chip discover a sacred tree (the axis mundi) and learn to shape-shift and fly through time and space, yet still arrive home for dinner with their parents. Their hunger for knowledge and meaning lead them to a teacher who opens the door for them towards love and understanding; and the power of the mind to accomplish the impossible. As a result, Kelly and Chip gain self confidence, self reliance and learn to become true warriors.
