=== Stories from the Mitten ===
===== Roy's Log: Farmington Hills, 3 Months after Exchange =====
To be honest, we were asking for it. This couldn't be avoided. Oh well.
Detroit got hit of course. Major industrial center for vehicles, so it makes sense that they would hit the city with just one bomb. It's bad luck for both the rest of the metropolitan area and Windsor. The fallout spread, but it somehow didn't reach us, thankfully. 
My family doesn't know what to do. Both my parents are stressed to the limit. I've never seen them like this before. If you want to know what happened to the National Gaurd, I'd laugh. They had a foothold on most of the grocery stores until a bunch of people started complaining about the rations. It went to hell after that. I heard different stories, one with all of the men just deserting and going their own ways and another with them heading back towards Detroit. Either way, there's not a lot of food to go around. I've been farming a little bit, but it's still not enough.  

On the topic of electricity, there isn't a lot of it. There's some, but it goes out a lot. People aren't doing well. Disease spiked, and a lot of people fell to it. My family is fine since we saw this coming and stocked up. It's amazing how much your mother knows about stocking up.

I have a plan, or at least that's what I call it. I'll only go through with it if things here at the house go bad. I'm gas up my car, pick up my grandpa's shotgun and pistol, and get another gas can. From there, I'll either try and find Eli, John, and Ashlyn or just head upstate. If they're dead, then I'll give them a proper burial, say a prayer, and go somewhere. Maybe I'll drive to North Carolina to see if my cousins survived. Maybe I'll drive to Rose City to see if anyone is holed up at the camp. 

God help me.

===== Jacob's journal, Upper Peninsula, 5 days after Exchange =====
I saw lights things in the sky a few nights ago. I got on the radio that night and some guy in Montana was saying the US got hit all over. He didn't know who launched them in the first place. I have no idea if Bay City or Muskegon got hit. If they did, then my parents are most likely dead. Fuck. 

I have enough supplies to last me a couple more weeks. Any time after that and I'll have to hike 10 miles to see if there's anything left in town. I have more than enough ammunition for my rifle, I just need to get food. I can probably use the river for water, but I'll have to monitor it for radiation. No idea if any towns up here got hit. 

May the sins of our fathers be forgiven. Jacob out.
