    The hole gets deeper and deeper
  2. When we arrived at Aunty’s, she escorted us out to the patio, where a table loaded with food awaited us. I was glad we didn't have dinner on the plane. Marcus was all smiles. I remember many of those around the table from the first time I was here with Mom and Dad. There were a few a didn’t know or remember, Gio said they were away when I was here. “Carlo, I wonder if I could ask you something?” I knew she wanted something and the only thing I could think of, someone wanted to go to Guam.

    I'm not so sure about rapid. Stops at Aunty's may slow things up a little.

    So far they haven't been around. Maybe wiping out that nest in South America has taken that threat off the table. Carlo is still leery, and probably always will.

    I think he will come up with an idea that will please the kids. Doing an European trip would require security, that would be a lot of men. I think he wants the kids to have a vacation where they would be safe and not feel under guard. We'll see what he comes up with.

    I think that Carlo will need to register as a tour operator just for his family. I wonder who will be next.
  7. Must of the flight home was at night. Late afternoon take off from Germany guaranteed we'd be arriving Guam in the night. Charles, Dan and the security guys, slept some on the plane, Dan slept with one eye open. I just had to look at him and he'd get me a cup of tea. I chatted the entire trip with my cousins. It was nice to play catch up. I learned how they met, what they had planned for their future and surprisingly, they had only been married for two years. I teased them about being newly weds

    Thank Chris. I share many of your thoughts which led me to write this story. It's sad that this a story and not a bio. I appreciate what you have written. I'm glad my story has resonated with you. God Bless

    I checked, it was information that Carlos needed concerning the mis-allocation of monies that ended up in Barbados.

    Al needed confirmation of his position in the family, now he has it. I can only visualize what he has gone through. Losing the only family he has, alone, he must have been scared. He was 19, a young age to be turned out into a world. Now he has Carlo and Puppy to fill the void. What a relief he must feel. He has family
  14. When I went to the kitchen in the morning, Al was there. Good morning Al, how are you? It has been a while since you were here.” “Yes, almost two weeks, you must have some pull with the Colonel. He suggested to the Captain of my squad that I might want to work the days when some of the crew took a leave, then they would arrange for me to have a longer leave. So now I’m here for a week.” I thought Giovanni will be happy to hear that. “Where are the kids?” “It's Saturday, no school

    Or the base take over them. With all of the boys coming to the house, it might look like the base is taking over the house.

    I'll tell them that. Hope they don't get mad at me.

    It seems they should be running out of space with the farm and all, The hut's aren't large.

    There was a firm but they were different, the firm Kevin visited was a medical device firm, the firm that Carlo and Puppy will visit is a financial investment firm. I'm surprised you remember the visit from the Peter Charles.

    Your welcome. Oh the people downstairs want to know why you are yelling.
  20. Young Douglas Haskins arrived on schedule, he spent his first day with his father and the next morning he was at our door. I took him to the kitchen and introduced him to the family. I knew the kids would be glad to see him. I watched him lean down and scratch Anthony behinds the ears. That was enough for Anthony, Douglas got a lick on his hand. Douglas is 16, a little more than a 1 year older than Carlos. Mom and Aunty made a big fuss over him. He was a cute kid and very well mannered. I knew w

    Yes, I'm glad they have a big house and all of those huts, they need it

    Would you want to be a guest at Carlo's and Puppy's place? What freedom you would have to be yourself, plus good food. It's a hypothetical place where a person can be themselves, happiness is guaranteed.
  23. Three words that bring a special joy to my heart, “I am home.” Puppy is home and all is right with the world. Three kids came running looking for a hug and a kiss, Anthony was tugging on Puppy's pant leg, he got a scratch on the head. I stood behind the kids waiting for mine. I got it but not a kids kiss. “How was your day?” “Not bad. Checked in a new patient, nothing serious. One of my patients who was discharged when we were gone, left a small gift. Evidently he is a craftsman and
