On my 29th birthday, I was awakened by someone knocking on my door. At first, I ignored it, but whoever it was, they were persistent. I immediately thought something happened to Mom or Dad. Putting on a robe, I went to answer the door. Turning on the light, opening the door, expecting Dad or Mom, a young man was there. “Hello, may I help you?” “My name is Ephram Wight. I was told I had relatives living here.” At first, I was surprised, and then I realized he spoke with an Eng

Haha Remember Mom and Dad know Marco I gay. I'm sure they would not be surprised. in fact I think Mom would look forward to it.
-
Marco don't need to worry. If Mom has her way, she will see Marco every day
-
Mom is happy and I think Dad is also. Marco will not fly to far from Mom, if Mom would allow him.
-
Sometime a promotion isn't worth the extra money or prestige. Marco has a good job, his needs are easily met and he has his home. He needs nothing more.
-
I'll add my prayers to yours. Hope all goes well

I wouldn't be surprised if Mom keeps the apartment

There was one job to do. I needed to get water into the kitchen. The pump at the sink used water from the well. The drain from the sink went to a septic tank and field. I wasn’t sure if I needed to prime that pump as well. I tried the pump, and nothing came out. So I decided to prime it. I went to the well outside. Using one of the porcelain buckets, I got a bucket of water. It took two buckets to get that pump primed and working. I had the testing results we did on the well, so I knew the

I have read your stories before and I think I'm going to enjoy this one. Looking forward to the next chapter

Yes, I think Marco is an old soul. He will begin to focus outside of the house. His bathroom in that small room will be the only change.
-
I wouldn't be surprised if it is daily
-
The boys only looked at the area around the house. Marco redeemed himself now the boys are probably having a great time riding those mowers

Sounds like you had a rough day. I think I would like to live in a house like this, also

“Dad, let’s get that empty drum and fill it with this water. We can use it to prime the pump at the house.” “That is going to be too heavy to carry.” “We can roll it to the pump.” “We can’t lift it. It weighs more than 400 lbs.” “I have an idea. Let’s roll it to the well.” Rolling the drum of water, “Dad, this isn’t easy, and I hope it doesn’t roll down the hill.” “Shush, don’t think like that.” When they got to the well, “Let’s set it up.” The two of them lift

I happen to agreer that Satan's influence has led to a monster, TV + Politicians
-
Yes, he will learn a lot and come to appreciate the house even more
-
Marco felt drawn to the house. As if something was directing him to the house
-
Evidently the craftsmanship exhibited, was something he appreciated and wasn't going to destroy any of it.
-
Yes, I think he wouldn't mind roughing it
-
I have been privilege to experience these marvels of the early 1900's. I think Marco will solve the problem of indoor plumbing. Having electrical service will help.
-
Nah, she will make sure she goes before visiting the house

On the way back to the apartment, I stopped at the feed store. “Jake, I need a 55-gallon drum, a spade, and a crowbar. I want to prime that water pump to see if I can get water from that old well. We found a way to get into the basement.” Jake got everything I wanted, and Dad helped to put the spade and crowbar in the trunk along with the gallon drum. We had to tie the trunk lid down. I drove carefully to the apartment. Mom started lunch as soon as we arrived. Dad and I began to make a
