Of the two I've read so far by dariyo and Wayne, I love them! Both are awesome and I look forward to reading everyone's!

Awesome, truly awesome story.It was indeed like a story of old told around a raging fire as child and adult alike sat transfixed and hanging on every word. Masterful job Wayne. I love it!

I like how you write and the way you tell your stories, but I really don't like a story from the bad guy POV, I just don't. However, you tell a good story

WOW Thank you very much. I'm glad you found and liked the story. The third pov was the only way I could bring you happenings with Andy not there. There are stories I've read with the first pov switching between the characters where the author pulls it off, but I'm not sure I could of had. There are always reasons one finds themselves surrounded by a past of hurt and misery, but the fact of the matter is, no matter what our past is filled with, we have choices. No matter what choices our father's made, we have the choices that we ourselves make each and everyday concerning our children; and we only only have ourselves to blame for the choices we made all on our on. Hopefully, we make the right choices, born of nutriment, respect, and love, more than anything else, love. I hope to bring you the next chapter PDQ. Perhaps some of your questions will be answered only to have new questions popup Thanks again for your kind words and the encouragement you offered.

You cannot discover oceans unless you have the courage to leave the shore. Twenty years from now you will be more disappointed by the things you didn't do than by the ones you did. So throw off the bowlines, sail away from the safe harbor, catch the trade winds in your sails. Explore. Dream. There have been times I didn't want to go somewhere or do something because of the reactions I feared coming from people at the places I wanted to go or doing the things I wanted to do. But now, I'm liberated by leaving people to their own thoughts, and releasing mine to dream and explore all the possibilities that life offers. Liberated by not being boxed in by limitations created by others. Liberated by soaring with the eagles and allowing my dreams and hopes freedom from being grounded in others' traditions. I have come to realize that I am who I am, created by my creator and not by expectations of others. I know I am different from others, but so is everyone else, and that's something to celebrate rather than to be ashamed of. I've said it before and I'll say it again, I'm so glad I joined GA, because of the caring people that belong here, like those of you that opens yourselves here in this very forum.

LOL It isn't meant as a trick, but we shall see, or maybe not

We find Andy, Joey, and Roger heading to High Rock in chapter 17 and a continuation of that trip will be in Chapter 18, which is coming soon. In these two chapters four big things occur. Two of them are clearly seen by all. Of the two not so noticeable, one is clearer than the other, but can you see all four?

I guess I created a real cliffhanger *blush*

So, you are the other person that voted for the story, uh? But I really thought the other stories would have had some votes too :-P

Have faith in Andy's and Joey's faith, and have a little faith in Roger, he'd be an awesome catch for some girl

Chapter 17 High Rock - Part 1 “We promise to be careful and not do anything stupid. We just wanna show Joey around and some of the things we can do later when he’s 100 percent. It’s peaceful and beautiful up there.” I walked over to Joey, sat on the arm of the chair, and placed my hand on his shoulder. “He deserves a break from all this stuff he’s had to deal with.” “Wait just a minute, Andy.” Dad’s voice went from the sweet gentle

Perhaps, the message in the story is being missed by intolerance and bias.

Wayne, you're a sweetheart!

Loved the chapter. Keep it up!

Hey guys! Sorry it's been a while since I last posted a chapter, but lot has been happening in my life, both good and bad. However, I'm heading home today, and I promise to start pumping out the chapters again. The response I've gotten from the story so far has been awesome and I look forward to repaying that response with awesome chapters. I hope everyone has an awesome week!!!

I just wanted to say hey and let everyone know, that's interested, T&T is still being worked on as I type this. I am on vacation in sunny Florida, but I haven't stopped working on it. I would like to be able to get back on a weekly schedule, but that would take gettting a few chapters ahead. I just don't have the time to pump out a chapter a week AND write good chapters. So I hope everyone will bear with me as I get my life back into order (most of you know the other issues I'm dealing with while I write the story) and make the time to finished T&T or at least Book 1 of T&T, IF you guys would like to see more of Andy, Joey, and Roger.

She is pretty cool. Thanks Mikie!

Good luck my friend!

I'm wishing for an awesome rest of the year for you!

Well, welcome back!

Awesome job Wayne! I loved it!!!!!!!

Thanks Andy for taking the time to read and leave a comment. There's no better feeling for me than to have someone like my story. I hope in the coming weeks, you'll like it even better!
