"Sounds good to me. I mean, Andrew had the cabin we were going to, but if Andrew was going to tell us any more about it, he would've already." Howard looks around uneasily, mouthing the word 'Right??' where he imagines his invisible coworker might be. He's still pretty spooked about Andrew's disappearing into thin air, on top of everything else. But he hasn't seen any doors opening or closing by themselves, thank goodness, so he's beginning to come around to the idea that Andrew has just left them, rather than that he's hanging around nearby, invisible.

"You feeling OK?" Jacob asks as he sees Howard mouthing words to unseen people "Ya didn't get bit, did ya?"

Keeping a careful eye on Howard he responds to Kel "Feed store? Would be nice if they left some weapons around as well, but any place we could hole up for a while would be great."

Kel gives some basic instructions on how to get to the former state police post.

Example.

OOC:
It would appear Howard is on the brink of insanity. He could use a good rest.

So the feed store, or the police station? Two solid ideas, and finding either is no true ordeal, you know these places well enough.

Kel breathes a sigh of relief as he finds himself reunited with his family. It helps him forget, momentarily, of the horrors he has seen. As the convoy of vehicles moves along through the suburban streets, passing shambling walkers and the occasional burning car, he is brought back to the reality of the situation. He looks at his frightened children's eyes in the rear view mirror and uses the time to bring them up to speed on what he has seen, what he knows of the situation so far...sound and movement triggers zombies, that animals can be infected too...and it only seems to happen when you are killed - it's not a plague that turns you as in some movies. He tries to encourage everyone in the car to stay strong, that help will be coming, and that all will be ok if we stay smart.

A calm comes over the group, Kel has a way of putting everyone at ease despite the events of the evening. It isn't long before you find yourselves crossing the outskirts of Elmore. This much smaller town is host mostly to farmland outside the city. You have have most likely visited at some point. Apple Orchards, real Christmas Tree sales, and horse stables where you can rent horses to ride for the afternoon. Not a bad little place. As you drive into town you don't actually see too much activity here. You see no cars, no people. The population was small to begin with, but it's now a ghost town.

You find the feed store easy enough. It seems entirely abandoned as well. But it still stands and is the safest and most defensible spot around.
OOC:
i might start another forum with a bigger better intro tonight or tomorrow.

Kel helps make sure the building is clear and secure and then helps set up a watch schedule (gamers are good at that) and gets some much needed rest.
