\u201cCoffee will be ready when you get up.\u201d \u201cGreat.\u201d She leaned over to whisper, \u201cI have a bad feeling about the kids.\u201d Looking at my face, Rose said, \u201cI think I already know what you\u2019re about to tell me.\u201d I gently patted Rose\u2019s shoulder. I whispered to Rose, \u201cThere\u2019s no way they can make it. Without power, they can\u2019t pump gas, and that\u2019s even if their SUVs will start.\u201d \u201cDoesn\u2019t Randolf have a Jeep?\u201d \u201cHe does, but it\u2019s a newer one, so it’s most likely sitting in the garage dead as a doornail.\u201d<\/p>\n

Rose asked, \u201cHave you tried the little car in the garage? Do you think since it was inside it will start?\u201d \u201cNo. I don\u2019t want to be disappointed. I have a lot of things to do before I screw with the car. Yours is working, so if we need a car, we have one, and Ed across the street has his Impala that I\u2019m sure will run. The little one might start, I had installed a metal screen inside the garage over the cars.<\/p>\n

It might have been enough to protect them. The first thing I want, need to do, is check the wind.\u201d Rose was confused, \u201cI don\u2019t understand. What\u2019s the wind got to do with anything?\u201d She smiled, the first one I\u2019d seen since breakfast, \u201cAre you planning on building a sailboat? Expecting a flood on top of the war?\u201d I hugged her, she was so cute, \u201cHoney, the wind carries the fallout.<\/p>\n

I assume the nuke over Oak Ridge was an air burst that would generate very little fallout. However, it also most likely sucked up all of the radioactive material in the reactor and stored nuclear weapons waiting to be taken apart. This will not only increase the amount of the fallout, but it will also make it deadlier. The direction of the wind will tell me how much we have to worry. Understand?\u201d \u201cNow I do. Why didn’t you just say that in the beginning?\u201d \u201cBecause my mind was racing at one hundred miles per hour.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cYou know, Randy, up the street, the Deputy Sheriff will give you a ticket for mentally exceeding the speed limit.\u201d I broke up laughing and hugged her. She always had a way of cutting through my stress. Jason, who lived across the street, had this wind rooster that the wind spun; his kids loved watching it. I studied the direction of the wind and nodded.<\/p>\n
