    A Busy November

    I'm glad I made your day. Thanks, Stix.
  2. I'd be run out of Georgia if I didn't root for my Falcons!

    Thanks, tor.
  4. Halloween had arrived and the Haunted House was proceeding without a hitch, but even better than that, Brandon and I weren't required to stick around. That was because Pop had offered to keep an eye on things for us and hand out the candy instead of wearing the scarecrow costume, as he had during the trial run. He'd opted to stuff it with hay instead and placed it in a chair on the porch as we'd originally planned. That freed us up so we could go with Dion and Trey to take the three youngest

    Boys in Trouble

    Thanks for the feedback, Wesley. Yes, if you watch the news you know things like this happen way too often. I'm sure Chris will do a lot better, as well as the other kids, now that they're out of that place.

    Boys in Trouble

    Adam and Mike said goodbye to Dave and Judy and drove directly to the Georgetown campus. Their classes were starting about the same time again this year, so Adam was only planning to help Mike carry his things to his room and then he would spend the night. He'd leave for Baltimore the following morning, after they had breakfast together. On the way there, Mike asked Adam if he wanted him to leave the two accounts deactivated, since Adam had said many times how difficult this semester was goi
  7. Thanks, Stix, and Halloween does seem to be mainly a US custom.
  8. Thanks, tor.
  9. As we entered October, we all seemed to have a great deal to do and not a lot of time to get it done. Noah let us know that he and some of his teammates wanted to get started on the Haunted House this weekend, so I talked to Brandon, Dion, and Trey. We had to find a way to keep Joshie and Bennie busy - preferably out of the house so they wouldn't see what was going on. "I heard at school last week that the 4-H Club and a bunch of the local farmers are going to team up next weekend and put on
  10. I'm not so sure the animals will be better off being left in the wild, since hunting and poaching is putting many species at risk of extinction.
  11. Happy Birthday, Jay T! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.
  12. Happy Birthday, Kichaku! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.
  13. The Washburns and Bermans got up early on Saturday morning, ready to make the trip home. After they loaded the rest of their things into the van, they checked the cabin one final time to make sure it looked as good as when they arrived and that they had left nothing behind. They didn't eat breakfast before they left, since they didn't want another mess to clean up afterward, and opted to stop and eat on the way back instead. As they were locking the cabin door and preparing to get in their ve
  14. Happy Birthday, Cassie! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.

    Family Weekend

    Thanks for the feedback, Stix. Halloween will be in the next chapter, and Brandon and Danny will eventually get another boy, but that won't happen for a while yet. You'll have to keep reading to find out when that happens. lol

    Family Weekend

    Thanks, tor. I thought some of the younger readers would enjoy a family weekend at college. They can be memorable.
  17. Fortunately, Noah's injury wasn't serious and he merely had a slight sprain, along with a bad bruise on his calf. I showed him how to tape up his ankle for practices and Saturday's match, so he was satisfied. We also iced both areas and had him keep his leg elevated to reduce the swelling. Time flew by at work the next day. When I got home, I checked Noah's ankle to make sure he hadn't done any further damage to his leg. He said I was being overprotective, and maybe I was, but I just wanted
  18. Sorry about starting the waterfall, but I'm glad you enjoyed this story.
  19. Happy Birthday, Matt! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.

    A Close Call

    Mike returned a couple of minutes later with a couple of the park's security guards. Mike had already told them some of the story, but now Adam explained everything that had happened and how he knew the woman was trying to take Megan off with her. As the security guards got ready to question the woman, Adam sent her another mental message. 'You will tell them the truth and confess to everything you did. You will also tell them about your husband or whoever is helping you to do this. You wi

    Many Plans

    Thanks, tor. Benny seems to be fitting in nicely.

    Many Plans

    I'm glad you're enjoying this, Stix, as Benny is getting to learn more about the family.
  24. After breakfast together on Sunday, Joshie and Benny took Wyatt to the family room to watch Nickelodeon. They did that for a couple of hours and then came out to ask if they could go swimming again. Since it was another nice day and the weather report I'd heard the previous evening said the temperature was going to drop sharply during the week and we'd be an enduring a cold spell, I agreed. Noah quickly let us know he had another idea about what he wanted to do. "Can I go down to visit my f
  25. Another prequel to the original Star Trek. I can't wait to see how it goes, but I'm somewhat disappointed that it will be on CBS All Access, rather than just CBS.
