    In reality, you would have to be there early in the morning, but in narrative writing, anything is possible. Alan took them on a tourist dream.

    It did, the usual tourist attractions. I have done these so many times over the years, I could visualize these so easily.
  3. Thanks. It has been a long time since I have read a story about the old west. I look forward to reading more.

    Fantastic. I usually don't find much humor in reading these stories, but this chapter had me laughing. I had tears in my eyes from laughing so hard. I can just imagine sitting there as this conversation went. You have done a great job writing this. Thanks.

    Sometimes the old ways are best. Family activities bring the family together. Sometimes I think we have lost this. Thanks for reading and commenting

    Chapter 18

    We met Andy’s boyfriend the day before our trip to New York. He was a cute kid, red hair, freckles and a mischievous glint in his eye. “Andy, I’m sorry, if I had known earlier we could have taken Rich with us.” “That’s ok Mr. Bradley my family always spend New Year’s at my grandparents in Florida. I like the sun and swimming in the ocean.” “Well, I hope you have a great time in Florida. You can tell us all about your time there and Andy can tell you about New York.” Jeff took Rich ho

    I think the old Alan is gone and Cody has create a new Alan, or maybe Cody has removed the bands that held Alan from expressing the his true self. They are both happy for Andy. That is what a mentor does

    Chapter 17

    Life at the house returned to normal. Roads were cleared, Cody and Andy had to go back to school. I was left alone once again but I had reports to review for the December meeting. That would give me an opportunity to do some Christmas shopping in New York. I remembered we were going to spend New Years in New York and I had to get Mary and Brian’s permission to bring the boys. I fixed a light lunch and continued reading my reports. Making notes in the margin as I read. I was so lost in what I

    In today's Covid19 restrictions, I think everyone wished they could go somewhere were the Covid19 is not an issue. I truly believe there will be a time, when we all can travel again. We can travel thought the world of stories/

    Good thing the story is not in the 21st century. You're never too old. Instead of going door to door, you all go to someone's house and have a party. Even Europe is getting into having Halloween parties.

    If you have any of that pie left, send it over. I haven't had persimmon pie since `1983 I don't think that will happen. He has a bedroom for the week-ends. His family cares about him and he knows it. As he grows older he'll look on Cody as a confidant. Wouldn't be surprise if he doesn't have a boyfriend soon. his own age.

    Chapter 8

    It is sad. There are men who become elated when their sons get's involved with a girl, she ends up pregnant, the father boasts how much of a man his son is. That is so much a corrupted view. Except when it's his daughter. His son, an excellent scholar, into sports, has a lot of friends, but is gay, then all at once he's no good. Why do they think everything reflects on themselves. The boy is 18, he can declare independence. Then I wonder how his father would feel.

    Yes, it's great to get away but better when you come home. Its like the break gives you a new perspective.

    You can do that if you follow the guidelines. Avoid people, wear a mask, keep the 6 foot rule and visit establishments that follow the rules.

    Chapter 16

    School started and we only saw the boys on the week-end. For the first few weeks, we missed our permanent staff. We’d meet Ralph at the diner, when he’d let us know he was passing through. He seemed happy and really appreciated the short hauls. Cody went to check out the college and found they offered a degree in education. He interview at the school, took an entrance exam and enrolled. I was glad because I knew he was getting bored just sitting around. I had the once a month meetings in New

    You would have to be young and active to consume that. I wouldn't be able to walk if I ate that. I'm a pie person myself
