          The 400 mile drive was long, and Rusty being a man that supports small business he stopped at many places like a pie shop, a souvenir shop, and "The Thing". I didn't mind all the time in the car or all the stopping because I figured i might as well get to know Rusty as he is. I mean as far as i know he's all i have left.

          Rusty was a sweet man, he bought me crutches so i could go in with him to the places we stopped. At night my leg hurt really bad. The pain kept me up all night and when I did get sleep I would wake up crying in pain sometime screaming. I had never been unlucky enough to break my leg before so this was new the pain killed me, Rusty would wake up once he hears me crying and he would give me my prescribed medicine then we would both pass out in the truck, he slept in the back with his sleeping bag because I wasn't going far with my leg.
