“OK,” Ace thought, as he loaded his gear into the back of the big green van, “I can sleep in the van if I have to.”

He closed the door, its red primer coating contrasting with the rest of the van.

“I’ve got cash for gas and food . . .”

He entered the van from it’s sliding door on the side. A mattress and pillow lay on the floor. He continued the thought, “. . . and I’ve go a voltage inverter so I can even use the converter.”

He began backing the van down the driveway.

Still in thought, he mused, “That leaves one problem. Where do I find a broadband connection tonight?”
