I finished making the water a while ago. My little potatoes are growing nicely (Yay!) Fiddleford owes me twenty dollars when I get home. He bet that I wouldn't be able to grow anything. Ha! Now he's not the only one with a green thumb.
Alright enough chit chat it's time I get back to business. I need to start thinking long term. I can't just survive off of potatoes forever!
There has to be a way to get home or at least off of this planet. I'll go insane staying here all by myself. I've already tried naming that food pouch (you know the one that moves). I don't think it likes the name Squishy. Oh well not everybody likes to converse with people.
So earlier in the week I decided to go exploring with some nice telescope like device and you'll never believe what I found. A teleport device. Well at least I think it is, I'm not really sure. There's a little center next to it that looks abandoned so hopefully there'll be some gadgets in there to help me attempt to communicate back home or with whatever else is out there. I'll take any help I can get.
The place is 3200 kilometers away from here which means I need some type of transportation because walking there is so out of the fucking question. Like I stated earlier, I'm not athletic which means I don't have the stamina to walk long distances. Though I'll admit 3200 kilometers isn't bad it could be worse. Plus I already have fuel here and I could easily make some sort of solar charging plate to charge up whatever vehicle I decide to make. I saw some wheels and other parts scattered around.
I'll draft the design out tonight and begin building tomorrow.

This is harder than I thought.
I got the basic design all built out but the fuel tank is way too big and the battery fits awkwardly. Thankfully the solar cells were a lot easier to work with. They're light and sturdy which means I can attach them to the outside of the vehicle and they won't get damaged. I can't risk the chargers to get ruined, if those go I'll end up stranded far away from the tent. That certainly wouldn't be good for me.
I'll go get some lunch and check on my crops.

So it hit me, I should really take the vehicle out for test drives instead of just starting my travels blindly. I'll only drive out a half-kilometer so I'm not too far from the tent just in case something does go wrong. Tonight I'll charge up the batteries but for now I'll finish tweaking parts of the Fordmobile (Cool name right).
Hopefully everything will go smoothly.
