my graduation day had came i was sitting in the front row waiting for my name to be called. today is the biggest day of my life and i wished that my mother was here to share this day with me. but my mother is looking down from heaven full of joy for her baby boy. then my name was called to walk on stage to get my degree. after that i went work at Pat's. Pat asked me what i had planed now that i have graduated collage. i told Pat that i was planning to go back home to my boyhood home in Silver City New Mexico. i was thinking about buy the home where i had spent my childhood with my brother and mother. but my boyhood home may not be standing anymore. but i sure hope and pray it is still standing. the day came for me to get my stuff together and move away from Lincoln County New Mexico. i loaded my stuff into my 1932 ford V-8. i headed to Silver City New Mexico. when i had got to Silver City i felt like i was back home again. i looked for my boyhood home. my was racing with not knowing what i will find. sheriff Whitehill saw me he said Henry McCarty is that you? i told yes  sheriff Whitehill it is me.  i told him that i had came back to Silver City. i asked him if my boyhood home was still standing? sheriff Whitehill tells me that my boyhood home is still standing and it is for sell. i smiled  i went to the land office and used the money that had made and saved up and bought my boyhood home. i had got moved into my boyhood home and got settled. it was just as had always remembered it. in my past i was an legendary outlaw and now i have a second chance at life and i am going to make the best of it. that night i had went to sleep in the bedroom that i had slept in when i was a boy i didn't wake up until the next morning. the next morning i got woke up by my bull terrier Josh barking happily and licking my face. i got of bed and showered and shaved and got dressed and went out find a job. i found a job working for Mr. Tunstall at his museum named after me. even if it means that i have to drive from Silver City to Lincoln County but i don't mind it at all.
