Well, the train may not be so obvious. I’m currently speeding towards our nation’s capital, and thanks to the free wireless on VIA Rail, I figure it’s a good time to post another update.

Thomas' daughter woke up when she smelled smoke and alerted her parents who evacuated the house. Derrick was taken to hospital suffering from smoke inhalation.
