    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
  2. Thanks, Stix, and Halloween does seem to be mainly a US custom.
  3. Thanks, tor.
  4. 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
  5. 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.
  6. Happy Birthday, Jay T! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.
  7. Happy Birthday, Kichaku! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.
  8. 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
  9. 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.
  12. 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
  13. Sorry about starting the waterfall, but I'm glad you enjoyed this story.
  14. 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
  16. Happy Birthday, Krista! I hope you have a great one and may you enjoy many, many more.

    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.
  19. 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
  20. 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.
  21. I will enter 2017 hopeful, although I'm also prepared for it to go to hell in a hand basket.
  22. If I wasn't able to keep the ones I made in past years, why should I do this again? LOL
  23. Since my friends overseas celebrate the New Year well ahead of us, I wanted to post this before the clock strikes midnight there. Happy New Year to everyone at G.A. May each of you enjoy a safe, happy, and prosperous 2017!

    Soak City

    By the time Mike, Adam, Jack and Megan reached the end of the trail again, they saw their parents had returned from shopping and were unloading the van. In order to see if they could help, the four of them hurried back and were greeted by their parents as they approached. "And where have you been?" Judy asked playfully, and Jack and Megan quickly looked at Mike and Adam to see how they were going to respond. "We just went for a little walk, that's all," Mike told his mother. Jack and Megan
  25. Yet another one! Too many of those we admired are dropping like flies. RIP, Carrie!
