Exodus — Patrick

“You could have picked locations a little further. I like driving the 300. I can only do it when my kids are not around.”

“Sorry, tried my best. But the state line was a limiting factor. Can you practice in Nevada?”

“No… I don’t think I can. Except maybe for desert tortoises”

“You studs want to get some food?”

“I should start working on the case. The DA there seemed very energetic”

“I wouldn’t worry about that. I suspect the case will disappear before you get home. But you probably have better food there. Thank you for dropping Phil off. Visit any time you can worm by those officers. Might be harder if the FBI decides to join us”

“Getting past them would be inconceivable. Enjoy your evening and see you and Phil later in the week if your prediction is incorrect”

“Inconceivable!” I say with a smile. “Thanks again”.

The trucks shuffle and a few minutes later John’s 300 pulls away.
