I take out my iPod and listen to Green Day... They're my favorite band... Driving to my secret place.. I made it for this very purpose.  It was a little RV with a bed, kitchen, bathroom and living area. I love these little vehicles... The serve a "running away" purpose... I moved my truck and set stuff up while waiting for John to get here.

I like to set things up early so I don't have to later on.. Like putting water in the tank for the sink and shower. The water in the creek was a great resource for it.  I took my cat, Sergio with me... He's a good kitty... I also put my crossbow in a hidden compartment behind the couch.  For hunting when we need food and if we don't really have the money.  We decided we couldn't work if we had people looking for us. So I decided to do an anonymous service website so I can sell art and do services and get paid in cash..best of all... The appliances run on a car battery or a generator.. We also decided a generator is too loud... So we use car batteries...

John got there a half hour after me.. He brought our son Bobby and his girlfriend Adele. Luckily I set up an air mattress in the living area for them.  I packed things I thought we may need for this new life... I packed a signal radio, a flashlight that runs on motion, (which means all you have to do is wind up a crank and it turns on and stays on for about 5 minutes when your done winding it) a ton of blankets and pillows, knives, metal bottles for water, extra arrows, a couple notebooks and pens, my old checker/chess board and a lot of other things..

I hugged him as soon as he got out of his car and hugged Bobby and Adele.  They also brought some resourceful stuff like matches, glow sticks, rope, toiletries and canned food.

"Hey guys!" I said excited.

"Hey" They all greeted.

I took stuff inside and set it all up. I put books in the bookshelf and the food in the cabinets.  I also took the blankets and pillows and put them on the beds.  I hung up a battery powered clock and put our cloths in separate drawers (one each).  The checker/chess board went in a bin under the bed along with some puzzles and a dvd player.

"Im really excited!" I said giggling.

"I think we all are" Bobby said.

"and this is Sergio" I added, picking up the fluffy cat.

We all got to hold Sergio and finally decided to build a fire.  We gathered up sticks and piled them up and used a match to ignite it.  Sitting on John's lap, I kiss him and warm up immediately.

That was better... Tell me what you think in the comments please...updates will be soon
