We’re getting ready for our annual beach vacation, and as much as I’ll miss Fenton I’m relieved to be getting away from his parents.
Each year the five of us load up the old minivan and head to the coast for some relaxation. I enjoy it, although it carries extra emotional baggage for me since I’m reminded of what lies offshore: the portal leading back to the human world from which I came. While Ray and Tammy’s lighthouse is about two hundred miles north of where we’ll be, I can’t help but be put in mind of that
night when I almost left this dimension forever...and what a mistake that would have been.
Speaking of which, I’ve done preliminary analysis of the interdimensional radiation and without going into the details (which I’m saving for a patent!) I’m developing a device that I think would theoretically be capable of receiving signals. That means I would be able to receive communications from the other side, if any existed! I’ll construct it when I return home, and hopefully finish it by the end of June.
Time to start packing for the trip. As usual I won’t be bringing anything inflatable.
