Thank you @kyrios. I am happy to see a writing contest. Thank you for the chance to enter. I was able to clean up the punctuation and change a few words. It was late when I wrote this and hurried to enter on time.

Henry, you have seven days to edit a post, so you still have time to clean up punctuation errors and such. E.g.
"I'm lost," he said, I haven't eaten for a week.
You might notice the missing punctuation.
Clever tale!

Thank you for the information @carolkean. The story would benefit from some rearranging.
