BoJamesDuke Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 By that point, Joe had had enough. HIs nerves already frayed by the sheriff chasing him for the upteenth time this week and now Hank's attitude was just rubbing him up the wrong way.Clenching his jaw hard, he got to his feet - ramming his hat back on his head as he did - and stormed out the cave to get his horse.

BoJamesDuke Posted August 21, 2007 Report Share Posted August 21, 2007 Joe was already at his horse when Hank called out, looking between the two before untying Hank's from where it was tethered and letting the reins hang about its neck before getting onto his own and heading off, calling back."Have fun with your girlfriend....some of us have stuff to investigate into...."
