    You are right to see degree, but think how you would renovate a castle. The walls of he house are stone and thick. They provide some insulation against the cold.

    It sounds like you had a lovely home growing up. Quite the entrepreneur selling rabbits. Have you ever eaten any?

    Chapter 7

    I sat at the end of the table, and they sat across from each other. “We checked the prices of wood for the roof. We figured it would be best to remove the shingles and replace any rotten wood. The roof beams look good, so we don’t have to replace any of those. We included plywood to place on the roof joints and then roofing tiles. This is the price for the materials.” I checked it over, and it included nails and roofing nails. I didn’t know the difference, and Brad explained the difference.

    I build my chapters around a theme for the day, so sometimes they vary in length. That is why I post two chapters a day.

    Chapter 6

    They have a one room apartment, a bedroom with a bath. Not much of an apartment for two men.

    I made the offer in jest, although when any of my readers correct a fact or point out an error in my stating of a fact, I appreciate it and correct it. So thanks for the date on tractors. I did go back and edited that date.

    No problem. The one thing about GA is you can go back and read previous chapters and previous stories

    Chapter 6

    I had some work to do in the wine cellar. I needed to flush out that small barrel and fill it with fresh water. The barrel that is about 1/3 full of wine I will empty to the sewer and then fill it with water. It’s the oldest and probably the highest in acetic acid. Taking a large bucket, I headed to the basement when my phone went off. “Hello, yes, this Dr. Carignano. … Yes, Brad mentioned that you might be able to repair the Olds….I see…. So when would you be arriving?….Yes, that would be

    Thanks, I'll remember that and correct my story. It's great to have someone to check facts for me. Want the Job? Doesn't pay anhythging except my gratitude and thanks.

    Yes, the tractor was introduced so I could introduce Charle as I needed someone to repair the cars.

    I had one of those in the 50's. We laughed at the movies we made. I don't know where they are today. Probably destroyed along the way

    They enrolled in college first. The tractors at that time were in the imagination of the author. A little white fiction , if you understand.

    A previous chapter spoke about Tony taking a walk to the barn. Which led him to posting the help wanted ad.

    Chapter 5

    Yes now he will see them working on the barn and in class. I don't think Tony knows what he is in for with these boys.

    Chapter 4

    The barn will be repaired and Tony will start to look for his horses. The apartment needs an update before he can do anything with that.

    Chapter 5

    Two weeks after I posted the sign at the grocers, two guys knocked on my door. “We saw your sign, and we think we can repair your barn.” “Do you have any experience?” “Yes, my name is Brad, and I grew up on a farm. This is Tom, and we were neighbors back home. Both of us grew up on farms.” So I had two farm boys, “I’m Doctor Antonio Carignano, I teach history at the University.” On my Italian passport, my name is Antonio Viccinto Manila di Carignano.
