Chapter 11

I allowed myself almost an hour for my pity party, mostly because I liked the way Mason felt. I knew it was just hormones but I'd take what I could get. When things started to heat up we agreed to leave the bunk and cool down.

So when we couldn't figure out another way to waste more time, we got into our pretty trucks and went back in the direction we'd come. We drove a little over two hours before turning west. Then the nightmare began. The road was horrible with traffic jams and I swear we spent more time in the median and shoulders than we did on the pavement.

One point we had to stop because we saw a herd coming our way. Turning off the engines and locking the doors, we climbed into the bunk, closed the curtain and opened the window to get some relief and waited. These particular walkers were energetic to the extreme. They actually tried to get into the trucks, rocking and tilting them so badly we had to grab onto anything we could find so we weren't thrown to the floor. This went on for a good half hour before they moved on. By the time we could open a window, I was drenched with perspiration. Mason climbed on the roof of the trailer to watch them and when the last of them went around a curve behind us we started the trucks and continued on our way.

The end of the day found us just turning north. It had been a long, exhausting day avoiding walkers. I swear, they all must of made it to Idaho before stopping and waiting just for us. The land was flat, with snow capped mountains all around us and I was relieved to finally turn north but then any direction that pointed me home made me very happy.

We stopped once to let Duke know we were once again going to be late. We ended up saying we'd see him soon. We had enough supplies to last a while at the lodge before trips to town for the winter stock up so when we got home, it would take something really big to get me out again. But that seemed to be my last words lately.

We were streaming along nicely, crossing some bridges that made me really nervous but held just the same. My face was as swollen as it was going to get, I hoped because I could only see from one eye. If we'd had some ice it would've helped a lot but I had to content myself with holding a cold, wet rag on it, I was still in pain, but until we found some drugs that wouldn't change.

Ken was driving while Mason snoozed in the bunk. Mason had found me a new toy. It came from a small police station we came across in a little town. The boys couldn't stand passing it by so we waited while they hunted. I would've been right in there with them but I was done in.
