Clinton's POV

Date: 12/22/15

Location: The Clinton Anderson Ranch

Time: 3:45 P.M.

Jessica is outside riding Moon while I'm off work today. I haven't told Jessica about my sister coming up today. I wanted it to be a surprise for Jessica.

I'm going to leave now to head to the airport to pick up, Linda (my sister). I grab the keys to my ford truck, on the counter and walk outside. I lock the front door behind me, since I know Jessica has a key to the front door if she wanted to get in.

I walk down the path to the driveway only to see my Ford F-450 truck sitting there in the driveway, right where I had left it. I walk to the left side and unlock the doors using the remote on my keys. I open the door and hop into the cab, gently closing the door afterwards. I put the key in the ignition, and pivit the key forward until the engine starts.

I buckle my seat belt and put the truck in reverse. I slowly back out onto the gravel road and follow the road to the arena. I wanted to make sure Jessica knew what I was doing. I see her riding Moon in the arena so I pull up to it.

"Hey Jess!" I call out, hoping she can hear my loud voice. Fortunately she did and trotted over to me.

"Hi. What's up?" She asks shifting her weight back in the saddle, telling moon to stop.

"I'm going into to town to pick something up. You need anything?"

"Can you get some of that lemonade or kiwi strawberry Ice drinks?"

"Yeah, I'll pick that up on the way. Anything else?"

"No, not that I can think of. Thank you!"

"Alright, I'll be home no later than 5."

"Sounds good, see ya then." She says as I close my window. I put the truck in drive and continue the gravel road until it leads me out the gate. From there I will exit onto a paved road, then onto a highway.
