6:00 am and the alarm sounds off, scaring me to death as two English blokes yammer back and forth about turning off the alarm. Why 6:00 am when I should be getting my beauty rest? I had forgotten we were going for a clandestine meeting with our secret chef, codename “Calendar.”
The top-secret instructions required us to come in a grey car, so we took The Silver Fox. There was no repainting required. We had an 8:00 am rendezvous time behind a large building on Katella Boulevard. The further instructions said to watch for a large 18-wheeler truck and bring the receipt to the officer in charge. Scout offered to go as he likes being “under cover”.
