Happy Birthday, Quokka! I hope it's a great one and I wish you many, many more.

The boys spent the week after their trip to Kings Dominion making plans for Christmas break. Adam kept busy writing up a list of the stores, businesses and organizations he wanted his parents to hit up for donations this year. That way he would know which ones to call in advance, so he could prepare them to give when his parents went to collect. Adam had Mike make out a similar list that Mike's parents would use, so Adam could contact those the Bermans were going to solicit as well. Even tho

Kitt, I did a search using the tags for Halloween and came up with fifteen stories.

The first trip the boys wanted to take was to Kings Dominion, which was just north of Richmond, Virginia. When Adam’s parents arrived home from work Friday evening, the four of them loaded a few things in the family car and then took off. A couple of hours later, George spotted a decent looking local restaurant and decided to stop for dinner. After looking over the menu, Adam and Mike bravely opted to try the house specialty. "You're really going to have the Frogmore Stew?" Rita asked, as s

The following couple of weeks that the boys were still with Mike’s family turned out to be quite uneventful. They were constantly watching and listening to various news reports, as well as reading any related news stories they could find, because they hoped they might be able to learn more about the marijuana growers. They were trying to find out if those guys had been busted or if a body had been found in the area, but there had been no reports of anything like that thus far. Then, one day t

Yes, it doesn't appear that it's over yet, so you'll have to wait to see what happens. Thanks for the feedback, Stephen.

When the family finished swimming and climbed out of the water a short time later, Mike and Adam moved away from the others so they could discuss what had happened in private. They wanted to talk about the gunshots they had heard and mull over what they both suspected. “Do you think someone else found the clearing with the marijuana plants, but this time those two guys shot the person?” Adam asked, as soon as they were alone. “I don’t know, but I’m worried something like that might have gon

It was still raining the following morning, but it was a warm, gentle rain. Undeterred by the weather, the fathers and sons sauntered down to the rowboat to try their hand at fishing. Mike rowed the boat out to the middle of the lake and then they all cast their lines into the water. After more than an hour, they had only managed to catch a couple of fish, but they judged them to be too small to keep. After releasing them back into the lake, they had nothing to show for their effort. That

I'm a huge fan of Rachmaninoff's piano concertos, so here's the second for your enjoyment. I love the heavy Russian overtones at the beginning, if if you listen carefully later, you'll hear a theme that was made into a pop song in the 70s.

On Monday, the boys talked their parents into taking a canoe ride on the lake. They decided to do it in family groups, so it would put three people in each canoe. “Dad you sit in front. Mom you get in the middle. I’ll be in the back,” Mike offered. “The rest of you can use the same arrangement in the other canoe. Adam and I went on canoe trips with friends over spring break during our sophomore and junior years while we were at State, so we probably have the most experience. Since the per

Sunday after lunch, Adam’s parents said goodbye to everyone and prepared to return home. They both had to work the following day, as did Mike’s parents, so they needed to get going. It was an emotional farewell for Rita, since she didn't want to be separated from Adam, but she understood she’d be seeing him again in a few weeks. “So are we going on vacation this year?” Mike asked, just as soon as the Washburns had driven away. “Yes, we are,” his father answered simply. “Well where are w
