Phoenix Jackson Timeline and Summary

Phoenix is walking along a path through the country.
She passes through woods, a hollow, up a hill, and down a hill.
Things get tricky when she catches her dress on a thorny bush and has to traverse a creek.
She sits down to rest and imagines that a little boy brings her a piece of cake.
She crawls under a barbed-wire fence into a field of dead trees and dried cotton, and then she passes into a field of dead corn where she talks to a scarecrow that she first mistakes as a ghost.
Then she comes to the easy part of the path that passes by more trees, cabins, and a swamp.
A big black dog knocks her over.
A hunter helps her up and asks her a lot of questions.
While the hunter is off fighting with his dog and the dog that knocked Phoenix over, Phoenix takes a nickel from the path that we assume was dropped by the hunter.
The hunter points his gun at Phoenix, but she is not afraid.
Phoenix arrives in the city, and the first thing she does is ask a woman to tie her shoe.
She climbs the steps of a big building and announces her arrival.
The attendant in the big building asks Phoenix several questions, but Phoenix does not answer them.
A nurse recognizes Phoenix and asks her about her grandson; Phoenix finally starts answering her questions.
Phoenix gets the medicine for her grandson and a nickel from the attendant.
Phoenix says that she will buy a paper windmill for her grandson with the two nickels.
Phoenix leaves the doctor's office and descends the big building's stairs.
