Despite finding myself so very distant from where I started, there's a similar feel to this place as I found during my time in Twin Peaks. There's something in the air here that isn't quite right, and I'm not just talking about the fact that a random assortment of people from locations across time and space have mysteriously found themselves here together. I will keep you apprised as to my impressions of this phenomenon.
In addition to the young man I previously spoke to you of, I also encountered a young Australian doctor, who despite being dubious of his own abilities in this environment will most likely prove to be useful, should we all find ourselves here for any length of time. I hope, however, that we'll find a solution to our mutual dilemma much sooner than that.
To this end, I sought out the leader of the large group of people who have now collected around a cleverly large bonfire. The closest I found was a man by the name of Captain Reynolds, who captains what appears to be a large and incapacitated spaceship. In other circumstances I would have recommended a psychiatric evaluation, however considering all I have seen in the last day, I choose to take him and his crew at their word. There are stranger things than encountering a space captain from five hundred years in my future on a mysterious tropical land mass, though I'm afraid I can't think of any at the moment.
I cannot report I made much progress towards my goal of discovering the secrets of my location and my unexpected appearance here, but I feel I have made a healthy start.
I have not ruled out the possibility that this scenario is all in my head, nor have I ruled out the possibility that it is an elaborate charade. However, since it is the situation I have found myself in, I feel I cannot proceed with any less than my best effort, and assume everything is real until proven otherwise. I am not absolved of my responsibility to myself and others just because my current environment may be nothing more than a collective hallucination.
Nothing else about my situation has changed, except that it is now dark when it once was light. A day has passed, and Diane, I am really thirsty. As soon as it gets light, I'm going to have to do something about that.
