With one last assurance, David went to

work. David worked all day and then came back
to get his father. But Jack wasn't at the exhibit
hall. Instead, David found out Jack was across the

street at the nursing home. As David helped Jack
into his car, he asked how the day went.
"What I want to know is who the idiot is

who decided to build a nursing home next to an
exhibit hall!" Jack said.

"Why?" David asked.
"When I got to the door and was going to
show them my ticket, I couldn't find it. While I
searched for it, someone decided I must have

escaped from the nursing home. They wheeled
me all the way there before I was able to find my

ticket. They still checked with the nursing home
manager to make sure I hadn't escaped before they
took me back."

"But you got back and went to the show,?"
David asked.
"Yes, but there were more than a dozen

times during the day that someone thought I
escaped. Sometimes they called the nursing
home, and a staff member came, and sometimes

the person thought they would be helpful and take
me back themselves. I swear I spent half of my

day trying to straighten things out so I could stay
in the exhibit."
