They are on their way to Champaign, Illinois, but they've stopped the truck at an old campground about 25 miles outside Denver, Colorado.  The Lorio children are experiencing snow for the very first time, and we've discovered that The Loader can't have his mind read by the telepathic Mia Lorio - which is disturbing both her and her mother, Beata.

From here, I'm planning a bit of a run-in between The Loader and Beata, the exit of the old Special Ops guy Ollie, and the next stage of their trip to Champaign.

Once in Champaign, The Loader will have to either disappear or become the driving force for the next leg of their trip (to Egg Harbor, Wisconsin).

The fall play I wrote opened this weekend, and I've been spending lots of time at school getting that taken care of, and trying to find even a moment to sit down and write.  I'm looking forward to T-giving weekend just for the sheer hours of writing time stretching ahead of me. : )

Here's to keeping at it and taking risks with the story this week!
