The custodian is preparing to leave.
We have watched preparations before.
The founding custodian prepared for thirty years
and never found the right direction.
This one has been here thirty-one days
and knows exactly where he is going.
We are noting the difference.
We are noting everything.
That is what we do.
The packing took one day.
Not because there was much to pack — the team had been living out of field cases for a month, and field people pack the way field people pack, which is efficiently and without sentiment, the accumulated habit of people who have learned that attachment to objects is a liability when objects have to be carried. It took one day because leaving required more than packing.
It required understanding what they were leaving toward.
