Eleanor finally found Howard in his bomb shelter.
Howard hugged her tightly. “You survived! Any others? Is Cleveland still standing?”
“Of course, Howie. Everyone’s fine.”
“But the radio died!”
Eleanor held a loose power plug. “Honey? Let’s get that twitchy knee examined.”

Luckily his wife went looking for him. Who knows how long he would’ve stayed down there! He could’ve lasted for years. Thanks so much. I’m glad you enjoyed this. 🙂

Hehe. They can really do a lot of damage, especially when you’re already expecting it too much. Who builds bomb shelters anymore anyway? 😉 Thanks kindly, Lyn! 🙂

Howard had a good test run at least. Functional bomb shelter? Check.

Haha! So true. Although next time, he’ll be sure to check that everything is plugged in. 😉

Good thing Cleveland made it. It would be sad if Cleveland went away. I assume; I’ve never actually been. 🙂

I actually don’t know much about Cleveland, but I think I’d be sad if there was no Cleveland Browns football team. For that reason, I like for Cleveland to stay. 😉

Yes, thank you for not exterminating Cleveland. I was there just this week and would have been upset had it not been.

Yeah, that would’ve been a major downer. I’ll be sure to keep it intact in any future stories. 😉
