That’s me sitting in the back with my old hat, and my button up shirt. I have lived in this messed up world for too long. I started my family with the beautiful woman that was taken from me because of the stress of the stock market crash. Now, besides what I have left of my family, I have nothing. They want to migrate to get away from the Great Depression. I don’t think I can ever run away from the depression I am feeling now.

I feel just awful for the two that are having the worst time on this trip. My baby boy that I am holding, who is developing a fever, and my grandfather, who recently lost my grandmother because of the crash. I don’t know if any of us are going to be able to make it to California, let alone those two. Since our car just shut down on us, I don’t know how we plan on making it anywhere now. This is not the time or place I wished my poor baby, or my other children, to grow up in.

I may be a toddler, but I have some opinions to say too. I may not be able to say it with my mom in the white putting a binky in my mouth all the time, but I surely can think about it. Everyone here is bumming me out. I know this is a sad time, and it doesn’t look like we are getting anywhere soon, but we can’t let our family fall apart. If we all just keep our heads high, I know we can make it through this. We are going to make it to California, and no one is going to give up along the way.
