Hours upon hours of coverage on this side of the pond. I fail to grasp the fascination with royalty. Didn't we fight a war with England to get rid of kings and queens? 🤯 The fact the bride's an American may have ratcheted the frenzy up a tad. They do make a handsome couple.

I'm not allowed to reveal the entire guest list, I'm afraid of CJ and Lola! But I did catch a glimpse of an invitation addressed to Bruce and Patricia Sprignsteen... 😋

I am NOT going back to re-write the wedding chapter. Who cares if Sir Elton John doesn't perform at CJ and Owen's nuptials. They get Chipper to sing for them. Oh, and don't expect all the fancy attire either. although there will be hats involved. How's that for SPOILERS? 🤣

I kinda forgot there was a wedding being televised this morning. Didn't watch it live but I caught highlights while eating breakfast. I'm trying to imagine what Eric thought of the grounds around the castle.

I will tell. I promise. There's even a rough draft of the letter(s) Liz wrote although I'm not sure I'll use it. But the time is not right yet. It'll all be revealed some time after the wedding.

I think community standards might be shredded if I wrote about that experience.

Aren't you one? Don't you live in the great frozen north?

LOL- I should tell you about the afternoon I spent at the local leather shop with the owner, his then boy-toy, and a wall of paddles asking to be tested... Prince Harry's penciled in for an appearance and a little interaction with CJ and Owen but that has yet to be written so it means it might never be. Even when I write something it can end up on the cutting floor. I had a scene revolving around a college football game in the chapter with the modeling shoot and Chipper's birthday but it was excised. So I'm trying again. My project this weekend is writing a visit to a university in Virginia to amongst other things, watch a football game. As usual, the game's not the important thing, it's my way of creating interesting surroundings for whatever action I have going on.

Thanks, bud

CJ's still growing and his attitudes are evolving. When we met him five years ago it was all black and white but there are now shades of gray there. I credit Owen for helping mellow him out. I'm sorry for not entirely satisfying the cravings. The weekly posting ritual isn't the most desirable but I've learned each time I take a break in posting, the next book has fewer followers, reactions, and comments. It's a constant battle between satisfying the desire for more chapters posted faster and maintaining the fan base. But be assured this book is entirely finished and will be posting on a regular basis.

LOL. You too? Don't encourage the darn Canuck! CJ and Owen are happy their wedding is only the 2nd most interesting one this year. The guys will be in London in less than a month anyway, during their trip to Europe.

LMAO- Spanking is a reward doled out at the correct times... The thought did cross my mind... but CJ doesn't get to meet Prince Harry until the next book. He and Owen are too busy finishing up the school year anyway. 😵

LOL And this one I actually describe! Will be the first time I do that since Cesar and Bred got married! But first, there are a couple more adventures and then there's a bachelor party and a rehearsal dinner.

Thanks, JP Heroes Haven is based on a real place and the description of Peter's background is based on the real man who runs the facility. I moved the location to Delaware from New Jersey for my purposes but the rest is pretty close to reality.

As I mentioned, his exact location's unknown but he's definitely somewhere none of us would consider a vacation spot. Maybe we'll find out details if he gets leave to attend the wedding.

I'm trying to provide glimpses into all the Squad members in advance of their reunion. The wedding will be the first time they all gather together in two years. LMAO! Gus was just to good to pass up. I saw a picture or comment about him being in Fire Island during summer 2017 and since CJ and Owen were there too... Outfit details will be revealed in time. I think there's 4 more chapters before the wedding.

So glad you liked it! Too many damn people get caught up in the rituals and the 'though shall nots" they forget about the caring and comfort their religions are meant to stand for.

Me foreshadow? Perish the thought. And we're not sure where Brad is. The US has troops in more than one hell hole. His actual location's classified as are most of his missions. Thanks for the continued support, Chris.

Muito Obrigado. Afghanistan is still a scary place and there are too many troops still at risk. From the US and other countries. Not something we should forget. I enjoyed writing Chance. He'll be back for the wedding.

CJ did his homework before the event. Proper preparation was something he learned while working on the Clinton 2016 presidential campaign and became standard operating procedure for him. While researching in advance of the reception, he learned Thompson's Boat Center had served as the home of Georgetown Crew for near fifty years. Located at the intersection of Rock Creek Parkway and Virginia Avenue on the Potomac River in Georgetown, Thompson's was a public facility owned by the National Park Se

Thanks, Dan. Inspiration does strike now and then. When it does, I try to milk it for as many pretty words and good phrases as possible. 😋

Don't feel bad. That reference went right over my head too!

Welcome to the PURPLE! Congratulations.

Ritchie's 15 1/2, a little mischievous, and not as savvy as his older brother was at the same age. He's bound to get grounded a few more times than CJ did.

Hope it wasn't one of mine! LOL
