The mechs helped us set up the radio this morning so we could get in contact with Pierre. After contact was established and verified, we asked about Matt. The doctor said while he couldn’t save the finger, He had sewn up the stump and given some time would be fine. He said Matt was in good spirits as well.

We all breathed a little easier after hearing that. An injury like that can be a killer in this day and age.

We worked hard today and got the excavator fixed up and ready to go. The mechs don’t know it but im fixing up a surprise to send back with them. I went down to the old shop and fixed up a pool table and dart board to send back with them. They said none of the bars survived the outbreak and there wasn’t much to do for entertainemnt unless the governor invited you in for a movie night. I thought some pool and darts would go over well. Jay helped me get it all ready.

A few dead heads showed today, but they are getting pretty ragged. Given another season i don’t think there will be too many left barring a fresh outbreak somewhere.
