Not really. But there is definitely something brewing in Hazzard or at least in the Duke family.

Luke found out I was running shine. I guess it was kind of dumb to think I could keep that from him...or anyone in my family. He wants me to stop. And I can't say I blame him. But at the same time, Jesse knows what I'm doing and he didn't tell me to stop. All he said was he didn't want to hear about me running shine.

Is this the same man who promised the government our family wouldn't run shine anymore? The one who laid down the law with Bo and Luke and who would not take no for an answer when it came to me and Luke moving in here?

And then on top of it all, Luke has some sort of plan brewing.

I have a feeling things are about to get VERY interesting in Hazzard.

There are days I think I'm a little too like my brother. He was my hero growing up and he's still my hero today.

I just wonder what he would say about what I did tonight. Would he be amused? Proud? Angry? I'd like to think that deep down somewhere inside of him he would be proud. That he would be impressed by the way I handled the job...and the General. But at the same time I know he would be angry. I risked things tonight that....

I risked my freedom, my life, Amber's life, and the General. He wouldn't condone that.

I just need to make sure he never finds out...something that will be much easier once I buy his old car off of him. Then I can fix her up and I won't have to use the General.

Why am I doing this? Is it really just for money?

No. I know it's not. But it doesn't mean I have a better answer. I need to think about this.

Well...we're here and we're unpacked. There's no going back now.

Luke knows about the little problem I'm having with cars. He was driving me over to the farm from Mama and Daddy's place and he swerved to avoid a skunk. When he did that I...it was horrible. It was like I just knew we were going to get into an accident.

We made it safe and sound, obviously. But the feeling is still with me. I know it will go away eventually...but eventually isn't soon enough. I don't want to be this way.

*sigh*

I'm gonna go find something to eat. I can't remember when the last time I ate actually was. Who knows, it might even calm my nerves. (Well, that or some whisky).

I don't know what made me decide to buy a journal. I guess it just seemed right. I have so many things running through my head...I need somewhere to put them.

The funeral is over. Mama and Daddy are finally laid to rest and Luke and I are getting ready to move in with Uncle Jesse and the others. Uncle Jesse says its because family needs to be together at times like this. But I know he has other reasons. We need the money from the sale and well...Luke just got arrested. He got probation...but still...not exactly the thing to convince Jesse we could live alone.

Anyway...I think I'm going to head over to the house and start packing. Luke told me to wait for him but...I don't want to prolong this. I just want to get there and get it done.

Until Later...
