Devastation

OldBones-Larry
7 5 66

I just arrived at the next oasis to find the reports were true.

There are some major repairs needed here.

I already know that I will have to send for dried grasses from somewhere else to replace what has been burned.

I will send the Bedoin out to collect more stones to rebuild the storage cairns. Some stones remain. but, most were carried away or something.

I think the first thing is to get at least part of the waterhole dug out so that there will at least be some water here for the travelers.

I sent a message to the Sheik letting him know how much needs to be done here. He will send manpower to get things done as fast as we can possibly get it done.

I sent one of the Bedoin that were with me on to Desolation Point to see if it had been vandalized. He will report back with his findings.

I will get to work right now and begin clearing the waterhole.

Travel safely 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.
