I woke up crying this morning, I know you don’t want to hear that, but sometimes I feel so hopeless without the two of you.

Got the job at the general store, and some food and water, not to mention a decent advance in pay, sorely needed. Dale is the owner, not sure where she is from originally, but seems a bit red-neckish and there’s a bit of a twang to her accent; but seems to be pretty nice. I think I’ll enjoy working for her, also met a new fellow employee and traveler, Dan. Big guy, you thought I was big when we met, this guy is his own safe house, big.

I would like to have a place to call home in the next week or so, hopefully an apartment, I have seen the tents on the edge of the woods, but I don’t get a safe feeling being out in the open like that.

Well, that’s it for now, give Gail a big hug for me, let her now I love her, and you.
