Restocking

OldBones-Larry
4 10 95

I arrived this morning at the next oasis. It is in pretty good shape and will need only minor work.

I set the Bedoins that are with me to cleaning out some of the sand that has blown into the waterhole.

I am refilling the Supply Cairns and repairing those that are in need of it.

Later we will cut down the grasses and dry them for forage.

I see a lot of dates and will dry those and place them into storage for future travelers.

I know that I must work fast to get to the next oasis and stock it.

I want to get to Desolation Point as soon as I can. I want to sweep it for traps and repair any damage that I might find there. It is so dangerous there for the travelers and I don't wish for anyone to fall over the edge.

Back to work so I can get this oasis done and continue on.

I have heard some rumors that Nic is planning something and I want to be ready for it.

Be careful out there my friends.

One step, and then another, will get you to where you want to be.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
