    40th Anniversary

    That was quite a start to this story! I am glad you are sharing another story about older gay men. I am excited to read more! Thanks.

    Chapter 20

    You are a terrific writer, and this chapter really shows your ability! Pacing was first rate! You just kept sucking us in. You created a lot of tension for your readers, and caused a lot of questions to be asked. I rather liked that you did not sugar coat the werewolf fight, even though I am not much of a blood and guts kinda guy. Sawyer can't die, so I can't wait to see how you resolve this dilemma. Love Sawyer and Jimmy, and their story! Thanks.

    Chapter 47

    It has been a lot of fun spending time with Will and Liam, and all their family and friends! You created a terrific group of characters, and I hope you will have another story about their lives sometime. Thanks.

    Chapter 14

    Thank you for creating Jim! He is a wonderful character, and I loved his story! I am certain there are people like Jim in the world who are helping others like Jim does. Too bad there aren't more. I also loved all the boys! They and Jim's parents were wonderful supporting characters!

    A New Beginning

    This is a wonderful story, and Dan is a terrific character! I must agree with Buz. There is scope here for a longer story. I have to add that although I would love more, you did not short change your characters' development or dialogue. Well-written and most enjoyable! Thanks.

    Chapter 12

    The good thing about finding a new story later in the game is getting to read a bunch of chapters without having to wait for the next one. You have another story about kindness to others, and it supports my belief that karma is real. What goes around, comes around. Or if you like Biblical, as you sow so shall you reap. I love Jim and the boys! I am excited to see how things go with the "second generation" of boys. Thanks.
  7. Thank you for sharing your poetry once again. I paints pictures for me that remind me of what I have seen on TV. Thanks also for your commitment to fighting fires, trying to keep the rest of us safe. I live in Washington State and one vacation visited the smokejumper base near Winthrop. I highly recommend a visit if anyone is interested and in the area.

    Chapter 12

    I am a bit sad to see your good story come to an end. On the plus side I am certain that you have another story to share with us! This ending was perfect for Jeff's story! Thanks for sharing.

    Clarion

    In this feel-good story Alan decides to make some big changes in his life. The interesting part is that he is somewhere in his middle years. He leaves New York to move to a small town. There he builds his dream home , falls in love, befriends some neighbor children, and creates a family. I have enjoyed other stories by cljobe, and this is another one I definitely recommend.

    Chapter 30

    Thanks for another feel-good story! I loved the way Alan totally changed his life in middle age. I also loved the way he used his wealth to make other lives better. His relationship with Cody and the boys flourished with the love and caring they shared. Thanks.

    Chapter 11

    I enjoyed this story, but the ending was a little abrupt for me. I felt like things were not resolved. I am not certain which guy I want Jamie to end up with. Oh well, thanks for sharing this story.

    Grand Opening

    It is a shame it is over so quickly, but I agree with your comment about it being a backstop. It really was a good place to end this story. Thanks.

    Chapter 17

    What an amazing chapter! The tension during Maddie's and Jimmy's "conversation" was palpable. Your dialogue and pacing were superb! I give the victory to Jimmy, but only by a point. I hope the lunch conversation is included in the next chapter. Thanks

    Chapter 19

    I am still really enjoying this wonderful story! Thanks.

    Planting Seeds

    Well, judging by the varied comments this chapter really got people involved (I was going to say stirred up.🤭). I believe that ear you have for dialogue really made this chapter terrific! I don't remember much about Colt, other than a few words in passing. This closer look has quickly made him another of your interesting characters. Thanks.

    Chapter 18

    This chapter brought back fond memories of my trip to New York City. Actually it was my Mom's trip for her 80th birthday, and I got to tag along. When you live in Washington state, NYC is quite an adventure! It sounds like the kids had a great time! Thanks.
  17. I am happy to be starting book six in this series! Since I really enjoyed the first five, I expect this one will be a lot of fun too! Thanks.
  18. I come from a time when Westerns were popular on TV and at the movies. Like dughlas and Albert1334 I enjoyed them all: Gunsmoke, Wyatt Erp, The Rifleman, Sugarfoot, Bat Masterson, Maverick, Cheyenne, and a lot of John Wayne. Both Boone and Coy are interesting, and as northie commented, your dialogue was first rate! Thanks.
  19. Just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this story! Of course that came as no surprise, it has all the elements of your other stories. Most importantly, more of the wonderful characters you create; people I would like to know in real life. I am looking forward to reading your next story! Thanks.

    The Final Straw

    I haven't commented in a while. I just wanted to say how much I am loving this story! It keeps getting better and better! And I really love this group of characters you've created! They seem so real, and are people I would like to know. This would make a great movie! Too bad I am not a producer with buckets of money. 😎 I'd buy the rights to your story, so we could all go to the theater, have popcorn with fake butter, and enjoy a terrific action-adventure movie! Thanks.
  21. And just as things are going so well between our guys we have a car wreck? Aaaagghhhh! And now we wait for the next chapter. I love all the speculation by the other readers! Besides the good writing and pacing, you have some great dialogue! And best of all, these two wonderful characters! Thanks.

    Chapter 16

    Well, you have another story under your belt, and it was a good one! You can also add Pete, Jimmy, and their family and friends to your growing collection of interesting characters. Your writing makes them all well-rounded, and part of that is your dialogue, which is first rate! I am looking forward to your next story. Thanks.
  23. I wasn't certain how I felt about Kayden at the beginning of the chapter. He is so meek and passive, and so many people, including his family, treat him badly. I have a hard time when characters are not respected. During the chapter you added several interesting characters. Many were the kind you love to hate! You have set up several situations that have piqued my curiosity. I am excited to read more! Thanks.

    Quiet Acceptance

    Both! I still really enjoy Mike's story! He has put himself first to become healthy and discover his true sensuality. I appreciate that you have included Dale and Maggie and what changes are happening because of Mike's new lifestyle! This may be a gay author and gay character sight, but there are straight people out there that gay people live and interact with. I do appreciate the lack of detail for their serial activity. On the other hand, I have been enjoying the details of Bob's and Mike's serial exploration! Thanks.

    Chapter 13

    In spite of the negative parts of the visit with Pete's family, there was a lot of good in this chapter! Pete renews his relationship with his sister, Evie, and her family. Pete and his family start a new relationship with his nephew, Alex, that will lead to adoption. Luigi offers the top two floors of the restaurant building for Jimmy and Pete's future (and bigger) home! Still loving these characters and their story! Thanks.
