It was cold and dark in the morning, walking times were slow. The morning started out dark and cold. The dawn sky was like the settings in a western movie, mixture of analogous colors, brown, red, orange and yellow. Th sun rise was spectacular and the orange sphere seems larger. We have a camp recall after I completed my walk, every inmate was called into the office any asked if we knew the escaped inmate who walked away from the camp. I told them i had no idea and don’t know him and he does not speak English. Called Doris at 10:50 AM: Th home alarm was triggered. I had to give her my email address : kyong2003@ yahoo.com. So she could call Xfinity to take care of the alarm. I showered at 11:10 AM. Talked to Doris at 11:40 AM: Doris is well but was stressed out over the alarm. Fortunately she was able to turn off the alarm. She let the dogs out. Patches got her international drivers license. I told Doris that Patches is a good driver. Mava will be driving Doris to visit me on Saturday. She asked about the camp recall. I told her we were confined to the dormitory until all interviews were completed. GED tutoring was iffy depends on when they let us out.
They cleared the camp recall at 11:50 AM. I brought a load of uniforms to the sewing room for repairs. Exchanged 2 t shirts for Ricky. Exchanged pants and shirt for Ivan and Exchanged 2 boxers and 3 pair of socks for Colimar. Exchanged 2 boxer shorts for Ali. GED tutoring from 12:00 – 2:30 PM. Dinner was served at 3:00 PM.
