Possibly the same age as Cooper, but too thin. Leah thinks him familiar and he asked of Cooper’s return. So possibly a classmate of Cooper and his cop friend/classmate, so….who is this K? And why is he so scared, or is he so ashamed?

Perhaps this situation will wake dad up. The one needing to be controlled is the stepmother, what a piece of work she is; public relations being as they are, she is not an asset to his businesses either. Casey and Drew may get a new opportunity for their relationship to prove what the church says about love and support, not the prejudices.

The big IF…without any issues. One can hope the American branch is already a little rogue; perhaps false reporting to the motherland? 😛

Either a I-told-you-so reacto-grapher? Or possibly more foresighted most popular-plotter? Either, subject to viewership ratings and/or donations to supporting their cause banners. Standby for the most up to date weather as…we review our ratings!

Quite the shakedown for a maiden voyage! Wow 😯, the aches will have aches, as muscles will contract in places that muscles were not known to exist, yet…the after glow will rewrite those aches into sexual desire to exercise once, or five times, more! Now how the heck is either one fit to operate a vehicle?

It was removed incrementally, in slow sensually steps, to pace though the never before experiences of a loving partner’s touch. On task, off again, then back to the objective, then finally fully removed…pesky clothes.

But the truth is still masked with those many unknowns; why did Elena change names and hide the truth forever, even until her death had she not told Carter. While being held hostage, by Dexter no less, her hopes and prayers were for Dexter to never learn the truth about who Carter really is…Ethan’s twin. Why did Grace/Elena fear Dexter finding out so badly? Beyond Ethan taking Jeremy’s heart from Dexter, Dexter called Elena a whore that forced is mother away and killed her. So did Dexter also take pleasure in killing Elena’s son Ethan as a cruel way of making her pay for taking is family?? Carter may be risking more than just the bumpy roads of Jeremy’s emotions of finding out; Ethan and Carter are twins, their father Leo killed his father, and convincing Jeremy that he himself has only now found out that much about himself? So Dexter is older than the twins and may have a longer list of murders to account for; Leo claims he didn’t kill Jeremy’s father, Ethan visited Leo and knew him…and felt Leo was telling the truth of not being responsible, yet who did? Did Dexter kill the father to keep Jeremy from moving away? Was Ethan killed just for taking Jeremy’s heart or was there other resentment from the step-brother family issues, then the death hit on Elena was after her escape from being held hostage…for what benefit to Dexter, as Elena had just left Jeremy’s house??? All this news to share, within the same house as Dexter and Jeremy’s mom, that are in cahoots. But what does their history reveal? Did they join to kill Jeremy’s dad, Ethan too? Carter and Jeremy are living with a serial murderer, if not two!

I always hated fill-in-the-blank tests, but fill-in-missing-pages will be a bitch.

Hmmm 🧐, so the twins Ethan and Carter are split without a definite answer as to whom is really the father. But Grace/Elena leaves the one person that stood by her, splitting the twins and renaming them and saying they can never know, all for the crush she had on Dexter’s dad. Ethan became the half brother of Dexter, whom never accepted Ethan, Elena, or the remarriage of his dad. Dexter’s mom committed suicide, and somewhere along the way Dexter’s dad killed Jeremy’s dad. Dexter lived near, developed a crush on Jeremy, but Jeremy fell in love with Ethan. Vengeful Dexter is jealous of Ethan and arranged a X-Ray overdose on Ethan to give him a death sentence, freeing Jeremy for the loving clutches of is husband evil killer…co-conspirator Laura thinks this is all good as it keeps her darling Jeremy near and under her control. Control is never beyond Laura’s thinking, so her rejection of the box willed by Elena to Jeremy would seem to be a manipulative ploy, or even a forgery; either way something that Laura already knew of the contents and its intended target… Wait! Why did Carter stop reading there? Continue, as I’m sure there must be the tie to Carter as a twin and therefore his dad killed Jeremy’s dad. So Laura lobbed another manipulative grenade into Jeremy’s life, so that Dexter can be her son-in-law. How’s that for one twisted woman?

I’m wondering if Arsen isn’t out on a similar brotherhood task and just witnessed… a pumpkin(head) being smashed by a brother. Why would it be so quiet 🤫, the brotherhood just cleaned house?? 😝 But the main character is still amiss, but the Skai brothers have the info. If the punk pimp shows up dragging a boy with him then Jacob can continue the story…Andy asked for help and no need to kill the witness; or wipe the kid’s memory.

Goodness, the only people committing crimes are the very ones blaming Carter and acting as if Jeremy has a mother/son obligation that keeps her as a final say guardian over her adult son; even as a successful businessman. While Laura’s partnership with Dexter has already lead to murder, it’s now, seemingly, a betrayal of their sinister promises… to a deranged killer. Hmmm, payback could still be such sweet revenge for all those harmed by their nemesis 👿. Good for Jeremy, and to Carter for pressing forward to live their own lives…until manipulative mom pulls upon Carter’s heartstrings for family. Argh 😖 Carter, you’re inviting more interference from a very dangerous pair! Why, why, why? Jeremy was already on death’s bed, and without understanding of who put him(you) there, you go back to the snake pit.

Pardon this interruption as we take a commercial break, ahem, a shower break; no fingers or buttons were harmed during this interruption.

So sad to learn that people lose all sportsmanship in their quest to seek vengeance; and against an associate of someone they despise, how twisted to play that indirect tit-for-tat bully game. If playing eye for an eye, at least target the real perpetrator of your perceived ills; go for their kids and they’ll scream bloody murder.

The sad reality of the final thoughts of the chapter, that alcohol doesn’t make them lie. After seeing so many young guys in the military setting, often work hard play hard, I would often remind people of their ill temper or sharp words after their drunken bouts. Their excuse being it was the alcohol, my reply being the alcohol doesn’t change you, it just shows your character uninhibited. Thankfully, on those occasions where I may have overindulged, ahem, I was a happy, joking, drunk, that didn’t hold back appreciative friendship. So I guess I only over drank with friends! 😛

Hopefully him and cousin Andy are both there on video; adds to Andy’s charges. That should help distance ole Red from his dear cousin; that lives in the bush…next to the loo, where he enjoys doodles.

Wow, such arrogance. It may be your property but we haven’t done anything wrong; except trying to stoke a fire with cytalatic converters by running those five hot vehicles up into the bush. There probably should have been an override expense for exceeding capacity of a site and of the campground. 🤦‍♂️ What a great but positive thing, to have Banjo the former classmate turned cop now looking to renew more frequent visits and contact. Yay, we’ll soon meet the cousins and vice-versa. It should add to the family that Cooper seems to want to foster more of; from his immediate family to extended, and then his associate extended family. Jasper may be transitioning into a closer member but a special relationship none the less.

Perhaps it’s the indicator of possible breadcrumbs to be found. You’re probably right to not really see them maintaining their cars…well. But vehicles can still be unforgiving in that they LEAK. So now that they are indeed showing that fluids need to be filled, perhaps it’s time to check for the leaky drip left in the parking lot, …and anywhere else that vehicle is there for any time; size of leak, like grains of sand in the hourglass. It’s not a smoking gun, but it can catch them in a lie about whether they were near, and maybe make their stories/alibis crumble.

OMG! 81 lives to 1, no way! Run away

As kids we learn from our environment and take it for granted as normal, never realizing that the majority of people have never seen, heard, or enjoyed such an opportunity. The dolphins were frequently around us, so as kids riding on the bow of the boat we’d often enjoy what we called our dolphin escort; they would frequently swim just off the bow, porpoising, or to a kid, hopping across the water as they swam along with us. But reflecting on it, that was more frequent when us kids sat on the bow with our arms on the rails and our legs dangling off the bow. I don’t doubt all our kid chattering helped invite such visits. 🤷‍♂️

Someone must have grown up with their only special meal out was …always at Denny’s. 🤦‍♂️ Road trip, just like home…always at Denny’s. 🤷‍♂️ No wonder they never learned about turkeys or thanksgiving…or KFC. 😛 MAYBE Chik-fil-a?? Now what’s that other cargo that’s going to make them rich? Live turkeys? 😯 Are maybe just meat lovers pizzas 🍕! 🎉

Why? does the media work for the Governor? The hatchet job to attack and shame a private land owner under the pretenses of reporting is shameful.Hopefully those memory cards have pictures from within the house showing their presence within and perhaps some indication what they were really looking for. This persistence to enter the property even after the event and personnel have mostly departed is beyond coincidence. Did the prior owner and governor have some connection? Or is the governor being played by the media to provide cover for their media access? Weird! Hopefully the cousins are safe, but are they at risk; has the parents’ deaths been determined murder with indications of a search for the kids?

Dolphins are so playful and curious. We used to stop our little cabin cruiser (small 2 bunk) at sand bars to take a swim break when fishing just wasn’t happening. One time the sand bar was submerged with about 4’ water. The parents were concerned about sharks but then the dolphins showed up about that time; they don’t mix with sharks! We were all playing, just us three young teen boys and the dolphins kept getting more playful and closer. They started brushing against me and nudging me; I was the youngest and smallest but 12-1/2 yo. I would stroke it as it passed to nudge again me again. On one slow pass it breathed out hard causing a misting in my face. Haha As they were ready to leave they moved out some and started jumping, one twisting and showing off. Then they came back closer again, did a backward threading and short laugh…then they were gone. This was all ironically on some sand bars just outside of Dauphin Island, off the Alabama coast of the Gulf of Mexico around 1969.

Yes, and the timing of his redirect seemed to happen too close to the actual observance of the events; meaning not only did the Governor not have a good seat, he missed the events in total without any seat at all. Why exactly? was he trying so hard to rub elbows with the Ambassador? It may be even more than pure arrogance, but that of corruption needing new avenues.

Either the Governor’s staff failed or the Governor is arrogantly pretentious. Hopefully this is not a sign of his political gamesmanship to say last chance before I make life difficult 😣. However, Cooper’s dad delivering the message is a plus. The Governor is probably unknowing that his turn away was being communicated by a federal official, likewise, it may have been monitored or recorded at the property entrance. Hmmm 🧐, give ‘em enough role to hang themselves?? 😛. Jasper is showing himself to be more appreciative of his relationship with Cooper; hopefully THEIR relationship, if he sees Cooper has given him reason to be more comfortable show his feelings. Cooper’s extended family arrival looms closer, will their progress report be of smooth travels? 🤞
