Bounty Hunters

Whenever I would take a train trip, he would always advise me, in the most serious of voices..."you gotta be on the look out for bounty hunters and bandits."  I would always entertain this line of advice from him, and I would even discuss the possibility of a good ol' fashion murder-mystery while ridin the rails.  It's my first time on the train since he left, and I was consumed with thoughts of him, and what he would be saying to me on the phone....."have you looked everyone over real good?"  or  "the bandits can come up over the hills quickly with their horses" or "are there any suspicious looking folks on your train"....actually this would go on and on.  This was most true during my cross country train trip.  Every day we would go over all the questionable characters or goings-on.  He was so much fun.
