This story is read by Craig Pelley and is told from the perspective of fictional character "Jake". This story remembers Western Point as a gathering place, where bonfire nights drew people together to share warmth, stories, and laughter against the early dark of fall. From roaring fires to quiet sunsets over Trinity Bay, it reflects how this spot has long been a place of connection, memory, and belonging.
