lurking on the dark edges of town....

The local hospital is just down the street from our motel, so it seems like an ambulance goes by every ten minutes. Very loudly. I've never lived by a hospital before, so I don't know how much that skews my perception, but it sure seems like Fredericksburg is a DEATH TRAP. Where are all these ambulances going? What is happening to people in Fredericksburg that they need so many ambulances? I think there is something unsavory going on in the north end of Fredericksburg, guys. If we never make it out alive, you'll know why.
