During Christmas holiday 2012, I asked Facebook friends their favorite word. My friends came through with a list of over 50 words. Scree, a new word to me listed by John L. Havekamp, grabbed my attention. The word shifts my mind to a bird screaming, but it's meaning has nothing to do with a screaming bird. My first encounter with the definition of this word was as a child walking around Shenandoah Lake, trying not to slip on the unstable ground.
Scree- an accumulation of loose stones or rocky debris lying on a slope or at the base of a hill or cliff.
