Shelter As Priority #2

When he arrived in the very secluded town in Maine, he knew that it would be the perfect location for him. He could go largely undetected in the woods, and there were enough cabins in the wood for him to target to get some food. Finding shelter wasn’t as simple, although he did have a tent with him for the first stretch of his “stay”. The tend didn’t survive through turbulent weather conditions, and on one desperate night, he resorted to sleeping in an empty cabin.

While staying in a cabin was a welcome change from what he had grown used to, Christopher realized that this wasn’t the right way to go about things. He didn’t like sneaking into the cabin and knew he ran the risk of being exposed and caught at any moment. He was riddled with anxiety after just a single night in the cabin, so he promised he would never do it again, opting to start thinking out of the box when it came to his nightly shelter instead.
