A couple days later the man is playing a fine acoustic guitar while smoking on his front patio.  A pitcher of wine is almost gone next to the last slice of a meat lover's pizza when a black and white T-bird pulling an airstream Caravel pulls up. He carefully backs it up leaving about  10 yards between the vehicles.

The driver steps out and nods to the musician.

The man is tall and thin.  Cadaverously thin with orange reddish hair.

He goes to the fence line and hops over.   After visiting the maintenance shed for a half hour he returns dragging a black and a green hose.  Securing the hoses to his trailer and starting black and gray tanks emptying he takes a break, sitting with the musician and smoking one of his cigs and pouring a glass of wine.

"Tonight?"  He take the last slice.
"No.  Tomorrow night. Give Jurt a chance to show up without trumping him. "

That evening the two men walked around DC taking in the sights and sampling a different restaurant every couple hours.

The next morning the musician steps out of his trailer, cat in his arms and thermos of coffee in his free hand.  Sitting at his table he looks over his new neighbor to the west.  A converted blue short bus.

The musician say," What time did you get here, Jurt?"

" 0: dark thirty, Vek.  Got plugged in and took a nap.  We got plans? "

Vek smiles " Not till around 9pm to night."

Jurt stands, pushing the pangolin off and letting it run and explore.
"Then knock on my door in about 10 hours "  He walks into his bus and shuts the door."

Vek steps over in front of his airstream as Chasa steps over to join him. 
Vek smiles.  "It will be an interesting year."    Chasa smiles,"Ya, like An Lộc in '72"
