I am on chapter three. When John gets older he goes into the army for about four years, then they let hom come home for the summer. On Johns visit back home he meets a girl named Savannah at the beach. He doesnt want to get attatched because he knows he is going to be back in the army soon enough. In their conversation Savannah mentioned she was just visiting Wilmington to help buil houses. John spends most of his time at the beach with Savannah and tries to stat away from home as much as possible because his dad hasn't changed one bit and is only ever worried about his coin collection.
