I explored Downtown philly today. I wonder if they always looked this broken and slummy. A few stores were broken and destroyed, no doubt due to riots of an age old time.

There were a few locals around, but when anybody saw me they ran for cover. Perhaps those guards came through and terrorized them a bit, but none of the less, It was a lot easier to search for water and consumables without them hassling me.

I am going to keep watch and sleep light tonight, I found an abandoned (I think) apartment up above what might have been a pizza shop.

No one bothered me last night, which was good. Locals here are still too afraid of me to actually come up and talk to me.

There Is a hospital here, I marked it on the map incase I need to come back, and I believe that If I can get everyone out of the shelter, there are enough supplies and room to board everyone for years.

I’ll get as much as I can to get back home. Perhaps I can barter with those guards for a vehicle
