    Chapter 75

    I'll try and make it a little clearer who is saying what.

    If Adam has his way, every boy would have a weekend at the cabin. I'll bet he will find a way for that to happen

    True, I hope Adam is up to the job. All of those boys need to spend tome at the cabin and learn how to fish. What stories they will write home.

    Adam has his problems as well, one is that he very sensitive to what these boys are experiencing . That has to effect him as well. When Johnny leaned into him or when he sees the tears that the boys shed, tears at him as well. He'd has a tough job which can be very emtional

    I think that will happen. You know Johnny is going to tell everyone

    I think Johnny may be the first of many. Wait till the gets back to the Academy. Adam is going to be swamped with permission slips.

    Chapter 75

    We sat on the porch, Dad and George sat on the swing, I sat on the steps with the boys. Marie brought limeade for us and beers for Dad and George. I got a kiss with my limeade. It was a quiet night, you could hear the crickets and every once in a while, a fish splashing in the lake. I was sitting in the middle and I had a boy on each side of me. Billy, being Billy, cuddled up to my side, I looked at Johnny and pulled him into a cuddle on my other side. I heard a sniffle but ignored it. We s

    They were going to build a special school in Europe where Adam could teach his methods. He would have had to leave the academy. That was a no deal for him. I think he may do seminars either at the academy or at a school in Europe but only when the Academy is on summer break.

    Whoever did in the past, I'll bet they won't in the future

    Chapter 74

    You know those coins are only good for a certain machine and have no value outside of the Academy, but I understand that you would really like to be one of Adam's Knights. 😀 I don't understand Mom sneaking around to overhear their conversations. I guess everyone has some quirk and that was hers.

    Skills a normal boy would learn growing up in a neighborhood with other boys.

    Yes, I am looking forward to see that event.

    Chapter 74

    (Dad and I are sitting on the porch, Mom is listening through a window) “I’m going to be very busy this summer. They want me to schedule seminars of my teaching methods being the major topic. I probably will do a lot of traveling. Marie is truly devoted to that clinic, so I’m not sure marriage is in the cards for now. I think we should wait for 3 to 4 years when all of my work settles down.” Dad looks at me and I wink. He looks at the window and see Mom almost having a heart attack.

    That would be best. No sense in Billy going and then driving back. That isn't a short trip

    Chapter 73

    I don't know who Johnny is related to but I agree, he and Billy will be friends for a long time. Wouldn't surprise me if they don't develop a relationship like Adam and Bill. oh check is in the mail 😀

    Chapter 73

    They have, I wonder if Billy knows Johnny's background. I hope not, friendship shouldn't be based on someone's background.

    I think is the action of a good friend

    Ahoy captain. Adam, didn't know Billy was at the cabin nor Johnny. Other wise, Johnny could have came with Adam.

    Chapter 73

    The next morning, I took my clothes that were going home and put them into the car. On the way back into the building, “Sir” “Good morning Johnny” “Sir, is Billy coming to your home this weekend?” I knew what was behind that question. “I honestly don’t know, but if he does show up, I’ll have him call you and if you want to come over, he can pick you up.” “Thank you, sir.” The day was going well, Henry called and said they would be up on Thursday, the installation of the

    I think that Adam misses teaching a little that is why he wants the kiosks. He can tutor I'm with you on fish, I could eat fish every day

    Chapter 72

    Yes and I don't think anything can compete with a boys appetite. I wonder how kitchens will change when these boys go home. Food that isn't common in their country just might become another MacDonald rave

    Thanks, for the young boys who miss their father, he definitely fills that role, for the older boys he more of an inspiration. Our teachers do more than teach us, they also teach us how to behave as adults

    That is an idea, I'll pass it on
