Chapter 48
We finished our day and ate supper. Our week progressed in a normal manner. When we met on Friday, we announced about the books. There was considerable interest. Also of interest were the reports of houses now available and the information about the groups that tried and failed to hurt us.
Alex said that he had heard from Margaret that her police company is doing well. They have met many new groups and deposed four petty dictators. Ours about the books and Alex’s about Margaret were the only items of note for this Friday while we enjoyed the fellowship and kids ran around playing happily. It was a cheering sound.
We’ve completed a year in our new home with our new daughter. It’s been good with many happy times. While winter was cold, it didn’t snow or even develop into any really bad weather. Nancy and Joe had a surprize. A young man came to their door asking for help. He was by himself, lonely, and hungry. Nancy and Joe adopted Jim into their family. Sarah knew him and they are now thick as thieves.
Margaret’s company is considering retiring as things have quieted down. Through Alex and his group, we are reestablishing communications with the rest of the country abd world which are also rebuilding. Joe and I are excited about this year’s crops and looking forward to a plentiful harvest. There is much to do but few people to do it.
