What's Next?

 Carly, Day 186, July 5, 2026

Carly and Phillip were both pretty energized after the battle and wearing plumbite jewelry, so they were not getting sleepy. Phillip practiced his diving.

As evening started approaching, they decided to relax on the front porch. Phillip prepared some drinks.

And they talked and looked at stars. It was a lovely evening.


And eventually they made their way to the hot tub. It did not take long for their romance to be right back on track.


The next morning, Carly had an idea for their next adventure.

Carly: I've been thinking and I remember before you completed your bucket list, you had Granite Falls on your bucket list. Do you want to get away for a few days there?
Phillip: I think that would be a great getaway. Do you think we can find a place?

Carly: Amenities or rouging it?
Phillip: Hmmm, amenities. But let's wait a day or two and have Isabella, Lawson and the boys over for a visit. She was worried about you.
Carly: That works.

Carly: Booked it!

Phillip was loving the idea of a new adventure.


Later that evening, one of their neighbors stopped by with a gift for Carly. She will get lots of gifts now as the Hero of Strangerville, but this was a just a neighborly gift. Carly did a lot of tattoos for Meredith in Nordhaven, and Meredith used to always call Carly and ask about having a baby and Carly would always say go for it. Now Meredith has 3 newborns.


And it was a lovely evening so Carly invited her to sit for awhile and talk.


And Carly is proudly displaying her Hero award.


The next day they invited Isabella, Lawson, and Harrison. Spencer wasn't available to invite even though he shows in their contacts. They added a little kiddie pool for Prince Harrison and a small playground set, but until everyone ate and talked and Harrison played in the pool, he never got to try out the playground equipment - next time.

He was taking awhile so Carly eventually went out and carried him to the back.

Carly: I am so sorry that I worried you. But everything in Strangerville is the way it should be now.



It was a nice visit but it ended too soon. And Carly and Phillip will have to stop over to spend more time with Prince Spencer.  And if you are wondering, yes, Em did get a plate of food.
