The California Island John Warren Self

Ronny grew up in a residential neighborhood east of Oasis, California living with his parents. They lived to the west of his late uncle's former cattle ranch as well. Ronny thought of himself as being a future cattleman as a boy. His uncle felt that Ronny wanted the rancher life when he visited his ranch during does earlier the summers. Sam wondered why Bobby emailed him when he never answered any of them in the past. He received no more emails since the wave split the state in into two parts. Sam was curious about whether Bobby went Oregon. He called Bobby's parents about that. His father answered his phone. "Hi Sam.""Hi sir, you heard about the big island in the Pacific?""Yes, a bad tidal wave. We all survived it here in San Jose.""Also, I heard about that and that you didn't evacuate either?""Yes.""Have you heard anything about Bobby?""Did you know that I stopped bailing him out of the LA county jail.""He was annoyed with you about that in one of his emails.""He's been emailing you?" "Yes. Still, he has no email address.""I see. Well, police near Oasis called about him stealing a camper-pickup truck south-east of Oasis and a hotel cash drawer in Oakland just before the wave struck. So, he is wanted for that and now he's been missing.""I see.""What about this email he sent you?""His last one, he said that he was hitch-hiking to Oregon.""It seems that he stole that truck to get away from there. It might be of interest of the Oasis Police if you inform them about that email?""Right," and they ended the call.
