There is vulnerability there, among all four. Richie is probably feels the least vulnerable because of Marie. Having parents who look out for them is still new to them.
-
Thanks, Colin has something up his sleeve. He has readily agreed to sponsor this project, so he must know it will work.
-
Yes, don't forget Colin has a force to call upon.
-
Colin thinks there are sufficient skilled people in the area. the roof, windows, a paint job could be contracted out. Being near the ocean there may be problems with the basement. I think with people who understand building a wharf, the could estimate how far they would need to go out. They could dragged the sea line, deeping it but would need a wall to keep the sea from walking away the land. Definitely need people who know what they are doing.
-
He might. The other fishing boats could keep them in fish, shrimp and lobster
-
You are right. It is easy for them to overload themselves. With Marie going home with them will assume some of the load. They need to do a time evaluation.
-
It should do well. He has a buyer for all of his lobsters and he has one chef who will buy his shrimp and fish. I suspect he will a good lunch crowd and the other fishermen will sell their catch to him as well
-
You are welcome. You can bet that this will definitely be on any future trips to Europe

There something about Grandfather I haven't put my finger on yet. Alesander is very excited who wouldn't be. Plays his cards right he has his future assured.
-
I would expect the grand opening will depend on when the wharf is finished. They will be busy.

Looking around, we agreed the living room could be made into a lunch room and the kitchen would be able to handle cooking requirements. Family could stay on the second floor, two bedrooms and a family room would be adequate. Colin and I listened. As the ladies were finishing their lists, Alesander came running in. “The boys told me you were here and you bought this place.” Colin went over and felt his muscle. Then we all laughed, “Yes, we will buy it but you’ll need to help getting it

GG knows what is in Grandfathers mind. I think she is influencing but she can't tell his secrets.
-
Yes, as Grandfather begins to trust these strangers, he will open up
-
I think there is a surprise coming. My experiences with stubborn old men, and yes I'm speaking from experience as an old man, they don't like to be open. We have our reasons and when the time is right, we open the door.
-
Yes and I think that caught Armand by surprise
-
The niching about cliff hangers it keeps your interest.

As they were walking to the hotel, the idea of selling fish from a wheelbarrow packed with ice solidified. Entering the lobby of the hotel, Armand noticed a woman with a flower cart selling flowers. “Colin, that is what we need. A cart like that. A wheelbarrow seems a little crude compared to a cart like that woman has. Let’s ask her where she got that cart.” Alesander went and talked to her. She gave him a note where she had written an address. I told Alesander to buy a bouquet of flowers

thanks I think Grandfather haven't told us everything.
-
Don't try and put a time on any of my stories. In my mind, after 85 years, time has no importance. Actually the cameras are modern they had to buy drives to download their cameras.
-
I didn't pay attention to the time factor. I did mention euros used in Europe. I'd place the time somewhere in 2000''s. It was when the Euro was the coin of Western Europe. Time for me is endless.
-
The church made an impression on Armand and Colin when they first saw it. And now the boys and Grands are seeing and understanding the Church's name . A Contribution to the poor box indicates the seriousness of the story by the parents. And of course the boys want geese.
-
Yes, Armand and Colin aren't finished with Alesander just yet
-
There are a few surprises coming. The Italian visit will be like going home for the boys. Nonna will take care of them
-
Do you know how ideas grow. The first idea generally is a simple thought and then as you think more the thought grows. I think there is a possibility this will turn into a major project.

Colin was still getting dressed when the boys knocked and entered our room. They were dressed in their suits and I knew the decision was to eat here tonight. “Colin, suits tonight.” He came out of the bath room with a towel wrapped around his waist and his face half shaved. The boys whistled and he chased them out of the room by pretending to put shaving cream on their faces. I’m not sure he was pretending. Sometimes Colin acts like a kid their age. When we were finished dressing, we w
