He came from over the horizon and stood strangely against the sky like a cloud reaching from earth to heaven. It was early November and the fall frost was spreading across the Californian mountains. He had set out from San Francisco that morning to hitchhike east. As he left the highway and made his way down in to the freight yard he was uncertain of his plans he had never ridden on a freight train before but had no desire to hike over the Sierra Nevada mountains either. He knew now that running away was no solution to a problem and wondered what his chances were of returning home to Chicago.
