[Atlanta, Georgia]

"Stop," said the voice. "I want you to stay where I can see you."

"Sorry," I said, "supper is waiting and I'm going in to eat. You do what you want but I'm not going to play your game." I walked over to the apartment and went inside to a worried Shirley who gave me a tight hug. "It's okay. I think we have a young person who really doesn't want to kill. Holler to Ed to come in and eat. If they didn't shoot me, they won't shoot him. They might come in."

She leaned out the door. She shouted, "Ed, come on in for supper. If your gun toting friend wants to join us, they are welcome."

Ed gave her a surprised look but slowly rose and headed for the door. I heard, "Wait!" He hurried inside and we closed the door behind him. We sat down for supper making sure we weren't in any line of sight through a window or line of fire through the door.

Ed said, "You had me worried there. I was afraid we were going to be shot."

"Could have been." I said. "I think our shooter is young and very unsure of themselves right now."

A few minutes later, we heard a knock at the door. I waved Ed and Shirley to stay put while I went to the door. I stood to one side and asked, "Who's there?"

"It's me. I want to talk."

"So, talk. We're listening."

"How can I trust you guys?"

"That's your problem."

"But..."

I interrupted, "You have to make choices in life. We are not interested in shooting you except in self-defense. You started things off with a gun, not us. Now, if you want to talk, you can do it outside through the door or put your gun down and come through the door and join us for supper."

"Okay, I'm coming in."

"Your choice. Keep your hands where we can see them and open the door slowly."

The door opened and two hands appeared. "Okay, come on in." I said. In shuffled a person in very baggy clothes holding their hands out in front of them. "Shirley, pat 'em down. We don't want guns suddenly drawn on us here in Ed's apartment."

Shirley gently patted down all the pockets of this person. "Okay," she said. "She's clean."

My suspensions were verified. I thought the voice sounded young and female. I said, "Okay, Miss," stepping over and sitting down, I continued, "have a seat and tell us who you are and have some supper." It was hard to make out any shape under the heavy clothes so I took Shirley's word that this was a female. The face looked female, at least, and youngish.

"My name is Janice Carter. My mom and I lived in the complex. We didn't get sick. She went out to the grocery store two days ago and never came back. I found the rifle in the next apartment and took it."

"How old are you, Janice." Shirley asked.

"I just turned eighteen." She began to sob. Shirley moved to hug her. I got up and went outside. Retrieving her rifle, I returned and waited while Shirley calmed her down. She finally stopped crying and said, "I just realized I won't go to school again. It's all over."

"No, Janice, it's not all over." I said, emphasizing all. "There are some good people left and, if we work together, we will survive and prosper."

Shirley said, "Tomorrow morning, we will search for your mom. It's not good that she didn't come back. We do suspect there might be some bad people out there."

Shirley calmed her down and got her talking. She actually was a very smart and brave young lady for eighteen, if she was even that old. As it was getting late, I suggested that we turn in. Ed's apartment was a two bedroom and I suggested that Shirley and Janice take the spare bedroom. I would sleep on the sofa for two reasons. First, I didn't want to sleep with Ed. Second, I wanted to keep watch and knew I would wake easily and early. The girls went into the bedroom closing the door. Ed said, "Do you want me to keep watch later?"

"No," I answered, "I am a light sleeper. I will waken if anything starts to happen. I'm also an early riser and will be up and checking things out in the morning."

"Okay, but wake me if you need me."

"I will. G'night."

The night was quiet. I woke at sunrise rested and ready. I quietly got up and put on my shoes and started to go out. The door to the spare bedroom opened and Shirley came out. She was dressed. She looked at me. "Are you going out?" I nodded. "Let me go with you."

"Yeah. Sure." We went out closing the door behind us. I stood and listened for anything. In the distance, I heard a motor fading away. Other than that, I heard nothing. I could tell Shirley was also listening. I could feel her relaxing as I did. Neither of us heard anything threatening. That was good.

"What do you think?" she asked.

"About what?"

"Everything."

"Okay, I think Janice's mother is dead or badly hurt. I think there is some realistic hope your parents survived. I think we are going to have to prepare for a future without many people in the world. I think we are going to have to be self-sufficient. I think you're a good person to watch the sunrise with. That's about it for now. Oh. I think I'm getting hungry."

"Men!" she huffed, chuckling. "Thanks for the compliment and I agree."

"About what?"

"Everything."

"Good, then let's start breakfast."

"Men! Okay." In we went and went through Ed's groceries. We started coffee and breakfast.

Ed woke to the smell of coffee and came out. Janice heard us and came out, also. She looked better for having rested. We ate breakfast.

I said, "Janice, why don't you pack your stuff and your mother's and join with us. I'm sure you will be better off at the farms than here." She nodded. "Ed, pack your stuff. Shirley, would you go with Janice?" She nodded. She and Janice left.

About five minutes later, Ed came from his bedroom with a suitcase. "I don't know of anything else that I need from here. At some point, there may be something else I will want but I don't know what it will be." He said.

We went out to the truck and loaded our bit of stuff in the pickup bed and rearranged things to provide room for both girls. As we were finishing, Shirley and Janice came up bearing two suitcases and a small box each. Shirley said, "I need to pack from last night but it will only take a minute." She went into the apartment and was as good as her word. In just a minute, she was coming out the door with her case.

We got in the truck and started out.

Ed knew the shopping center that Janice's mother was probably going to visit. He gave directions and I moved out slowly. We had gone about half a mile and I saw a small body with a bright green top and dark blue pants at the side of the road. I slowed and said, "Janice, what was your mother wearing?"

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 7

[Janice] We were airborne again after lunch and flew to Oklahoma City for the evening. We found the airport and landed. I taxied to the general aviation section. We were getting good at this. We left the plane and found fuel and refueled. Then, we looked around to figure out where we would eat and sleep this evening. We found a lounge and put the cushions on the floor and rolled our sleeping bag over the cushions. There was an attached café and the natural gas worked. We would have an easy...

Protection and Preservation Book 06Chapter 3

[Janice writes from Lavaca] There were six or eight horses and five trucks in the party coming our way. They quieted when they saw us waiting there. Melissa and I were the only ones not carrying a rifle and we had pistols strapped to our sides. Even Charlie had a small-bore rifle. His instructions were to drop the rifle and grab Doris on the way to safety. Right now, all we could do was wait and trust Melissa's feeling that things were right. I trusted my spouse. When she had a feeling...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 8

[Janice] We were all on foot and Bennie and I seemed to have our hands tied behind us. We came into a subdivision and I noticed four or so homes that looked occupied. People came out and began to gather around. Jerry said, "They fly. Joe and the others are looking over their plane. Marty and Jamie, you are to take the girl back with Sheila, Angie, and Joan. We're to hold the man here. Joe wants you to bring the truck." One man said, "Jamie, I'll get the truck." I saw another man nod...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 42

[Preservation – Janice] We untied the other two and brought them back to the house where the Somerseters (they didn't have a name for themselves and it made it easier for me to think about them with a name) lived. It was a quiet, communal meal that night. As the meal ended, John stood and said, "I think you all know that I have changed and why. I think we need to be part of a larger group for protection but I do love this part of the country. I would like Bennie or Janice to talk to us...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 9

[Janice writes] We continued our planning for the trip while living and performing those functions of everyday living. Charlie and Andy went to their home. Wendy and Tim visited them and were flown by Andy and Charlie to Protection to meet Doctor George. The older couple was enchanted by Doctor George and his wives. That's what my daughter in-law told me. Jane told me that Andy and Charlie entranced everyone. They make a beautiful couple with a kind word for everyone. Jane reported that...

Protection and Preservation Book 07Chapter 28

[Janice writes] We stood in plain sight with our rifles at rest. We were wearing sneakers, shorts, and tee shirts. Mine were tighter than Robby's were. The two people approaching us on horseback were a man and a woman. They were good-looking people though both looked to be in their mid to late forties. The woman was Hispanic and still very attractive. I couldn't resist it. "Arnold and Maria Ralston, I presume?" They looked shocked and nodded slowly. "I am Janice Cook-Thomas-Sullivan...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 25

[Preservation – Janice] We left the next morning with six former Penn's, Jim, and twenty men from Preservation and Elroy and his wife, Carrie. They were married by radio and volunteered to go to help with the women if we were able to rescue them. From Carrie's looks at Bennie and me, I think she thought we could have done it on our own. Bennie mentioned it to me and I told him we just have to stop performing miracles. He grinned. As was usual with Jim, we had point. The folks followed us...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 37

[Preservation – Janice] We went home with Poppa and Momma and stayed for most of a week. It would be some time before Laura and Kevin could return. Finally, Bennie said, "We need to get out of here. Let's make that trip to New Orleans." I nodded and said, "We need to get away and check on our newly weds. I'll tell Momma and Poppa." I called Momma on the two-meter and we QSY'd to a simplex frequency. It wasn't private but there was little likelihood that anyone would be listening. I...

Protection and Preservation Book 06Chapter 6

[Janice writes from Mexico] The man said, "I apologize for Raymon's actions. I am Martin Gonzalez. We are glad to see someone new. Where are you from?" Robby said, "I am Robby Cook-Thomas-Sullivan and Janice is one of my spouses. We are residents of the communities of Preservation and Protection up in Georgia and Tennessee. We also represent Port Lavaca, Texas. "We are on an exploration trip to make contact with surviving groups to let people know they aren't alone." The woman...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 17

[Preservation – Janice] He wanted us north. Overall, he was pleased with the jaunt south but disappointed in the result based upon the original objective, which was to look at the partition. Even now, we couldn't do that without specialized protection and supplies. That would wait, maybe for a long time. We had a lot of territory under our control or knowledge to the west and to the east. We were growing in both directions. The surprise from the north by the Triple-A's was not pleasant in...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 19

[Preservation – Janice] We went back to Amy's horses and got mounts for everyone. We went back to Walmart and picked up rifles and pistols with all the ammunition we could find. We pulled out of Durham heading back toward Atlanta and Preservation on I-85. Once on I-85, we painted over a billboard with a message. Only three of us were experienced riders so our initial few days were slow with many rest stops so they could ease their legs. It takes some time to adjust your body to riding and...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 16

[Janice writes on the way to Newfoundland] We landed at Reykjavik and began refueling. One of the Icelanders came up and asked, "What is wrong? The other plane flew in and then left quickly." I said, "One of my daughters was shot. She is in the other plane and they are headed for St. John's, Newfoundland, as quickly as possible. We have a doctor and hospital plane meeting them. She will need surgery if she is to survive." "We will be hoping for you and your daughter. Good...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 45

[Protection – Janice] We learned a lot from Tom and Vic. Tom was more the flier and Vic was more the mechanic though the difference was more one of degree than anything else. Vic was a very good flier and Tom a very good mechanic. Both of them were also very comfortable with the theory of aeronautics as well. As we worked with them, they explained what we were doing and why interspersed with aviation theory and knowledge. Tom told me that we would pick a plane for our use and go over it...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 11

[Jack] She continued, "We are going to marry them. Our full-time residence will be in Protection but we want to keep the house here and will make frequent trips to see you and everyone else we know and love here. We also talked to Tom and Vic about a larger plane to bring all eight of us here. "You haven't lost a son and daughter but have gained another son and two more daughters plus two grandchildren with another on the way." We jumped up and hugged. Shirl told them that she looked...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 15

[Preservation – Janice] Through spring, Bennie's arm was in the painful stage of rehabilitation. Under Doctor Anne's tutelage, he exercised it regularly and got back into shape generally. A month later, she said he was good but suggested he continue his exercises to further strengthen it. It was the middle of spring and we were ready for a trip. Bob had met one of the widows from the I‑20 area. He told us that he could watch over our farm, help Poppa and work Mabel's farm with her. Mabel...

Protection and Preservation Book 03Chapter 21

[Preservation – Jim in Utah] I lay in bed and moved to the radio only for the net for four days. The east crew who were following my route finally worked their way beyond the rocks and should meet me today. I was looking forward to seeing someone. They had a paramedic with them and the doctor was waiting in Salt Lake City for my arrival. A day later, I arrived back in Salt Lake and immediately went into the operating room where they worked over my leg. I was put under but was later told that...

Protection and Preservation Book 07Chapter 6 Janice In El Paso

The meal progressed nicely very similar to others I had been to over the years in other places. Everyone was friendly and I enjoyed talking to many of the men and women in the community. Covertly, I watched Charlie and Andrea. She looked like no girl I had ever seen. Interestingly, she seemed to enjoy Charlie's company. He came by my seat during desert and whispered, "Wow! She's smart." I whispered back, "Just be you. Watch out for other guys who might be jealous." "Yes, mom!" He...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 5

[Preservation – Janice] "Honey, should I break one first so he knows we're serious?" "No, we'll start easy. If he hesitates or lies, we can always start then. Now, James, how many in your community?" He locked his jaw planning not to say a word. Bennie went over to Marv and Bubba and tied them up and gagged them. He went over to James and put his foot hard on his right wrist. He reached down and grabbed the little finger and pulled back until it went, "crack," and broke. James...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 2

[Janice] We watched as two wagons pulled by horses came toward us with people waving excitedly. We stood with hands hanging loosely at our sides until they came close. We waved back as they came close. They pulled up about fifty feet from us and piled out. Two men and two women approached us slowly and with a little care. I noticed one of the men eying me a little harder than really appropriate. Bennie saw that and gave him "the look." He moved his gaze away from me. The other three...

Protection and Preservation Book 06Chapter 12

[Janice writes from Preservation] George asked for someone to come down in the Connie. Many of those in Port Lavaca wanted to attend the wedding. Mike and Jen and both sets of parents had become popular while visiting. George added that he wanted to come a little early if someone could give him lodging to look at the generators and such. We told him we would do what we could but were going to be busy. He might be better served to stay after the wedding when things would be calmer. He agreed...

Protection and Preservation Book 10Chapter 5

We landed in Taipei. We were met very soon by a group in trucks and military vehicles. Ellis was with us again. He began to speak and was interrupted by a man who kindly said, "Many of us speak English and practice it regularly. Let us use your language." We were surprised but he quickly continued. "My name is Lee Shan. We would be friends. Please call me Shan." He shook David's hand. "I believe you are the leader of this group?" David said, "Yes. My name is David Lewis and this is...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 16

[Preservation – Janice] A few minutes later, Bill called the group together and introduced Bennie and me. Next to Bill stood a tall older woman who had an air of ownership toward him. Bill introduced the group to us including Sylvia who was obviously his partner now. Bennie took a turn to explain Preservation and our mission to them. He then moved into a description of the radios we used in general terms. He explained that we had set up a station at City Hall. The item of most interest was...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 26

[Preservation – Janice] Bennie and I were having supper with Momma and Papa. After dinner and putting the kids to bed, we began to talk about another trip. Poppa said, "I wish Jim were here. His trip was epic and now we should check out the north again. I think there are people up there and it would be nice to get in touch with that area. Wherever you decide to go, please take a number of spare radios, generator plans, and all. We don't need to recruit more people for here but it would be...

Protection and Preservation Book 10Chapter 11

Later that afternoon, David got on the radio and arranged for Ben and Noah to meet by radio and talk. David listened in and told me later that those talks were productive. Both men wanted to stay in contact and work together in whatever way possible. We made plans to leave a radio and antennas set up and operating. Ben worked with people in his community in Adelaide to have the radio maintained and appointed a regular listening watch. During all this time, Sophie and George were together...

Protection and Preservation Book 09Chapter 12

[Charlie writes from Spain] We watched for the people to come from in front of the terminal. There was no radio traffic. We saw two wagons and a number of out riders come across the north end of the terminal area. People were waving and I saw open hands with guns still holstered or lying in the wagon. Andrea said, "When we get out, Myra take my place at the wheel. Tom, be ready to pop out at the turret and shoot. We do want to give them a chance though." I looked at Andrea and nodded. We...

Protection and Preservation Book 03Chapter 10

[Preservation – In Missouri] She pulled sideways and, as she stopped, I began to shoot. The lions not hit in our initial shots ran off quickly leaving the area clear. "Darryl, open the door." I then said, "Protection Force, come around the Bradley and enter with the Humvee's. Tractors, turn around, close up, and run inside. Pam, we will be last." As those in the tractors ran for the entrance, lions came out and Melissa and I cut them down. The lions quickly gave up the attack. We drove...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 9

[Janice] Bennie said, "Roger. We're here waiting." I always enjoyed watching planes land but the Connie was impressive. We had moved the horses into a hanger. Experience had shown horses that hadn't heard motors did not like airplanes. Tom brought the Connie in gently flaring it down to land with a gentle chirp of the tires. He let it slow gently since he had plenty of runway. He turned and taxied to us on two engines cutting them as he came near. We had found a rolling stairway and...

Protection and Preservation Book 06Chapter 7

[Janice writes from Mexico and El Salvador] We left for Belize without incident the next morning targeting the primary airport. According to our map and book, it was in Ladyville. In honor of the name but mostly because it was our turn, I piloted and Pam was my copilot... The flight was uneventful. Landing was a bit tricky. If possible, this area had suffered more than the Cancun area. I found landing tricky because of the broken appearance of the asphalt. It was bumpy but useable. Tom and...

Protection and Preservation Book 03Chapter 9

[Preservation - In Missouri] We waited for more news about Dave being broken up about his wife's death. A few minutes passed. Mel came on sobbing. "Charles is. Charles is dead. Dave is, too. We're coming in." Pam and I looked at each other. A young woman came into the room. I said, "Monitor the radio. One of the Bradley's is coming in. We're going in to meet them." We left for the garage area. We went armed. I think anger showed on both our faces. When we arrived, the machine gun...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 6

[Janice writes] I found it hard to believe that, within twenty-four hours of reconciling and marrying, Andy and Charlie would be off in separate directions to complete commitments they have. I managed to trap him alone while Andy talked to her parents. "Charlie, is everything really okay? This separation worries me." "It shouldn't, mom." "It does. It's me, Charlie. Explain things. I'm feeling very old and very slow." He hugged me. "Mom, it will be a long time before you're old...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 7

[Preservation – Janice] It was Thursday when our sentry post advised us by radio that we had company coming from Atlanta. We had a quick pow-wow and decided that a couple would be heading over to High Falls park to "prep it for winter" with the plan that they would be seen and talk to the Triple-A party coming down the road. They carried a radio in their wagon but would keep it hidden and off when they met the Triple‑A contingent. They reported that they saw the Triple-A coming down I-75...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 18

[Preservation – Janice] The next morning, we had a quick breakfast and set out with Amy to have a look at her horses. She actually had a small herd of ten with a stallion, mares, and colts. There were also two geldings in the herd. One of them came up to her nickering softly. She grinned at us and said, "This is Billy. I usually ride him or one of the mares." Billy was a fine looking horse and all of the horses in the herd were looked like they had been kept well. Amy obviously knew how to...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 27

[Preservation – Janice] Our next planned stop was Washington. When Jim had been there after the Day, he found almost no people there. We tried not to have any expectations as we entered the nation's capital. We found no people though some signs of visits over the years. We set up camp in the Mall area, which was overgrown. We picked a small building and broke in to establish a base while we toured the sights of Washington. It was fun. It was sad. It was not an area that would lend itself...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 29

[Preservation – Janice] At Cincinnati, we crossed into Kentucky following I-75 across the river and moving pretty much south. We came to Boone County and Bennie expressed an interest in seeing something having to do with Daniel Boone. I gave him my best withering look and suggested that we really didn't need to make this trip longer than it already was. We celebrated the first of September at the point where I-71 peeled off to the southwest. We continued to follow I-75. This point was in...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 13

[Janice writes from Estonia] It was mid afternoon when Anton returned with a pretty woman about his age and three young children. He came up to Charlie and me. He said, "This is my wife, Marta, and my children." Charlie said, "Hello, Marta, it's good to meet you. This is one of my mothers, Janice." "Hello, Missus Janice. Your communities practice plural marriage?" I said, "It's good to meet you and your family. Some are in plural marriages. Most marriages, like Charlie's, are...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 4

[Janice writes] Our learning efforts were beginning to pay off. Everyone was learning and Andy had a totally new attitude about helping and teaching. I would describe her as wistfully beautiful. She had lost something but I could tell she hoped to get it back. It, of course, was Charlie. The new attitude from her was utterly attractive. Along with her physical beauty, the young men were being drawn in. She politely ignored their overtures that started less than a week after she returned to...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 5

[Janice] We headed for Milwaukee and circled the area to see if we could attract any attention. We made some widening circles but saw no signs of recent habitation. Our next planned stop was Minneapolis/St. Paul, the twin cities. We watched the ground closely but saw little signs of cultivation or harvesting on the trip as we flew low and slow. We circled around twice to catch anyone using smoke to get our attention but saw nothing either time. The main airport was blocked by a couple of...

Protection and Preservation Book 09Chapter 15

[Charlie writes from Lisbon] We settled in at the terminal with food at a couple of tables and our peoples met one another. A surprising number of the Portuguese spoke English. I guessed it was due to Monica Lewis. We began to tell our stories and I found that I was mostly, but not totally, correct. I asked Mom Janice to tell our story. She did it quite well including some of the early days of Preservation. She told of gaining airplanes and the trips and places where we had friends, naming...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 41

[Preservation – Janice] Jenny and Amy tended to the abused woman finding clothes and helping bathe her to start the healing process. Her husband was the dead man, which didn't help things except for her to know he died defending her. No one else had been hurt other than tied up. I quietly talked to one couple, Dave and his wife. Marie was a nice looking, older woman about the same age as Dave. I said, "Who were the rapists?" She pointed out two others and said, "The other two are dead...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 6

[Preservation – Janice] We got up early and hit the road trying for as direct a route as possible. We saw no sense in going to Augusta and Savannah was out of the way. We crossed the Savannah River and kept going. It took us two days of steady riding to reach Eatonton and the Rock Eagle 4-H Camp which we had enjoyed before. We used the same building as before and called in to Preservation. Jack said, "Where are you now?" I replied, "We are in the Rock Eagle 4-H Camp just north of...

Protection and Preservation Book 03Chapter 4

[Preservation, West Georgia] Mike is two years old. It's late spring of 2014. It amazes me to realize I track time now by my son's age. Shirley and I are trying for another. Actually, we have been trying just without success in getting Shirley pregnant. She said that we enjoy making love too much to worry about her becoming pregnant. Janice and Bennie married six months ago and they had a church wedding after making their public announcement. I gave away the bride and Shirley, holding...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 30

[Preservation – Janice] We bedded down for the night with me taking the first watch. Bennie was right. Steve didn't think about having a sentry. That could be hazardous unless you were a very light sleeper. Kevin would be next and I woke him gently. He woke easily and took my place. Bennie would be next with Laura being the last. We had a shotgun to use on watch. Its purpose was to wake everyone as much as to provide some firepower. I felt Bennie leave later and then return much later. He...

Protection and Preservation Book 05Chapter 10

[Jack] They flew into the Carrollton airport to be met by Shirl and me and by Bennie's dad and step-mom. It felt good to have them back but I knew something was different. Bennie and Janice talked for a day. I could tell they were troubled about something but waited for them to talk to us when they wanted. Shirl said that I should ask them what was wrong but I counseled that we should wait. They came over the next morning after breakfast and chores. Bennie said, "We need to talk to both...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 35

[Preservation – Janice] It was a quiet night and we started early the next morning. Bennie wanted a defense in depth with wide coverage. He was concerned about the dogs returning and wanted to be ready and able to keep any interruptions from our observers, particularly since Carolyn was not very mobile. The observers, Ann and Carolyn, were at the ridge line with Laura and me. Laura was there to take notes but I was there to shoot animals as necessary. Back about twenty feet were Bennie,...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 39

[Preservation – Janice] Convalescing wasn't easy. Bennie and I celebrated Halloween and Thanksgiving as real patients. I could walk a little by Thanksgiving but it was painful. It was mid December before Bennie was trying to walk. He was weak from lying in bed and stiff from not having been able to move. It was so good to sleep together in a real bed though. We started what Doc Ollie called our rehab period right after the New Year. It was torture but we stuck to it. We both wanted to...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 21

[Preservation – Janice] We went out the back with my horse and picked up Bennie's. We stayed in the woods trying to shield our movements from the hill post. Bennie said, "Leave your radio on simplex and try to call Amy. Act like you're concerned but still in the rest area. Let's see what you may hear. I'll monitor Jim on the triple nickel." I nodded. "Amy, this is Janice. Do you read? Are you okay? Over." There was no answer. We wanted to get there immediately but that was our...

Protection and Preservation Book 07Chapter 12

[Janice – In Phoenix] He told me and I repeated it out loud as Pam and I stood and started moving. I said into the radio, "Dog attack on our son!" Angela said, "I know where that is. I will take you in our truck." Bennie and Robby came in with rifles throwing one to each myself and Pam. The six of us left for Angela's truck in a hurry. I got in the truck and said, "Charlie, we are headed your way. Ted's wife, Angela, is driving us. Are you okay?" "Yes and no. We're where the...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 12

[Preservation – Janice] I was asked to help but Bennie and his healing took precedence to me. I took him back to Preservation and our home in a wagon as soon as possible. The radio called me back the next day. Poppa wanted my help. The Triple-A people had to be handled and Bennie and I had been the star performers in that process. The fact that all the crops were in helped gave us time to handle things. Poppa's mother offered to watch Bennie for me. I was reluctant but Bennie insisted that...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 28

[Preservation – Janice] We had followed I-93 into Boston but deviated from it to meet up with I-95 outside the city. From there, we would trace a path up to Portland. It appeared that this portion of our trip would be a bit over one hundred miles or four to five days depending upon our rate of travel. It took five because we took a detour to the Bush place in Kennebunkport. It was interesting though storm damaged. This area might not get hurricanes but sure received storms! We arrived in...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 33

[Preservation – Janice] It was quiet for a moment. Poppa said, "Is there any further new or old business before we hear reports?" He paused a moment. "Hearing none, the chair recognizes Janice for a report on the trip to Talladega to investigate some field raiding." He looked at me and I stood. I said, "Mitch reported that one of his fields had been raided repeatedly and he and his people couldn't find the raiders. Poppa asked if we, Bennie and I, would investigate the situation. We...

[Jack] George came on through the repeater, "Jack, everyone is okay, here. The plane suffered some kind of electrical fault. They landed a bit hard and the plane is wrecked. We're loading their luggage and people into the trucks. Once we're loaded, we will attempt to contact those waiting in the woods. Vic says he isn't seeing anything threatening here. He will expand his circle to cover you and will work the repeater." "Roger." I thought for a second. "Shirl, pull forward even with...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 13

[Preservation – Janice] A few moments later, they brought another man into the room. He was younger than the rest had been, early twenties if that. He looked at me like I was a prime piece of meat. I said, "Number one is that I'm not interested and number two is that I'm married to a wonderful man who is great to me. Number three is that I can lay you on the floor screaming in pain without breaking a sweat. You will answer questions. Ben won't stop you from trying something though if you...

Protection and Preservation Book 04Chapter 31

[Preservation – Janice] Bennie and I had settled into our routine. Laura's lessons in self-defense were coming along nicely and Kevin was learning from Bennie. He was a better shot than Bennie with a bow. Usually, he went out hunting with a pistol, knife, and bow and brought back a meal. It was fun to watch the circling around as he and Laura got to know each other better. Both had competition from others in our community because both were attractive and were developing good survival...

Protection and Preservation Book 07Chapter 30

[Janice writes] I went to the four men and said, "I have questions that will be answered. There are two choices. You can scream or answer. My young daughter had to kill two of your evil friends when they attacked her. She is upset and so am I. If you want any hope of returning to your people, some one needs to talk." I looked the four over. As usual, I picked the largest. Robby hadn't tied any of them. I said, "You, get up. Which arm?" "I'm sorry. What do you mean?" "I'm going...

Protection and Preservation Book 02Chapter 7

[Tennessee] It was mid July when Abe came to see me late one afternoon. We sat down on the front porch with a cool drink. Abe said, “Mister George, I haven’t told anyone this yet because I didn’t want to alarm anyone. I haven’t even talked to Angela and Claire. “We have some trouble coming from the west and we need to prepare for it. We’re going to have to fight to live up to our name. It’s our duty to protect those in our care.” I said, “Abe, do you know what kind of trouble?” “No, but...

Protection and Preservation Book 03Chapter 13

[Preservation – Jim heads out of D.C.] I motored out of Washington in no hurry and watched the road and out the sides for people or signs of habitation. People seemed to not hang around on main roads. Since I tried to avoid sticking out, I understood that thinking. I left taking I-95 north. I wasn't worried about traffic and didn't take any loops. I went right through downtown Baltimore and then to Philadelphia. I had seen the Liberty Bell before and didn't remember anything else that I...

Protection and Preservation Book 08Chapter 11

[Janice writes from England] Early in the morning, we, my spouses and older children, talked about the two groups. Mel said, "Don't go to Wales. We will lose people. Birmingham will be okay but won't accomplish anything worthwhile." I called the entire group together over breakfast to talk about the two areas. Poppa wanted to visit both and was pushing hard. Finally, I shouted, "Enough! Poppa, if we go, you will be in charge but must leave the plane last. Your wife, one of my fellow...

Protection and Preservation Book 10Chapter 13

I saw neither George nor Sophie the rest of the evening. I rejoined my husband at the table in the terminal. He gave my hand a gentle squeeze as I sat down and joined the conversation. Basil was sitting across from me and asked, "Would you go off with me, Bobbi?" "Sure, but you would not like the result." "Helen wouldn't mind." "Perhaps, but I would. David is so much more man than anyone else in the world that I no longer tolerate much from other men." Basil didn't quit. "You...
