Journal 8.12.17

Saturday – It’s mid morning as I take time to write today. It’s heating up in this part of Texas with the high temps around 97F today. I am grateful that the vent system works well in my cell, but I am ready to go back to Dallas County where the building is air-conditioned. That time will be here very quickly.

Yesterday I heard that Lanny Swearingen was given another execution date on the news. It’s for November 16, 2017. That’s just a little over 90 days away. Lanny is a friend of mine and this is not his first execution date. I’m thinking about him and all the guys on death watch. That’s a very difficult thing to go through and I hope all of them find a way off death watch ASAP!
