                    I took lots of pictures when I woke up.

    10:58am  I got about seven and a half hours of sleep. I woke up around ten. At like three in the morning these dogs started barking. They woke Laura up. I didn't wake up. Then it started pouring. I had to run out there and throw the rain cover over the big tent we are in. We stayed pretty dry inside. We did get a little wet. I'm getting dressed and getting my stuff ready. Alright, later on.
                  
     3:40pm  I have to make an update. We spent all day chilling out at our foundation, hehe. I cleaned up so much. I picked up all the years worth of leaves. I filled up these two huge tall bags full of leaves. I'll take pictures. Laura was a bit bummed out this morning.

                   Tiger Valley Road. Walk down that street to get to Laura's foundation. What street do I turn on? Starks Road. I'm going for a walk.

                   I came back and Laura and I drove to the public library, which isn't too far.

     5:43pm  I just left the library. I had a wonderful email session with my new friend Jayme from Morgantown. She's glad to have found someone who thinks like her. I don't know. She's got a big pitbull. See, I was bored on the computer so I searched Google for "jayme morgantown."  I came up with a YouTube video someone posted that had Jayme pudding-wrestling.  Check it out.  Jayme's the brunette.  I called her from the library and told her, "Yeah, I saw your big pudding fight.  All three rounds."  She was totally shocked I could've known about that.  Oh yeah, I am only three hours away from Morgantown! I can't believe that. She even offered to come pick me up! That's so awesome, man. Laura and I had come to the library, but she had to go to her friend's Brenda's. So I'm going to walk back to camp, the foundation.

     6:01pm  I'm walking back and I just got the idea to kill time until I'm tired enough to go to sleep I'm going to stand on the highway with my thumb out. Maybe somebody will pull over.

                    Tractor crossing.

     7:02pm  I'm not going to try and hitchhike because all my new tee shirts are still in Laura's Pathfinder. Jayme said she was going to come pick me up tomorrow night. Cool.

     7:23pm  Turning left on Starks Road.

                   Where we park car.

     7:33pm  I made it back to camp. Oh yeah, right in front of the foundation where you have to walk through it's all muddy, so I took some of those leaves I cleaned up and piled some on top of the mud. I'll take pictures.

Next day..
