.................... Could be Lisa betraying Bridget, BTW that interview with Joel is long overdo!

..................I gotta agree her, stick to the job, the economy sucks and what definite handhold have you if it fails! I would wish you the best in your venture but what life line are you holding on to? Your stated here as being 25 years old, can you keep up the dream and hold monies until you are at least 30-35? I made a big mistake years ago, the wife wanted to venture out into large properties and build, but she suffered a massive stroke, the house we had was lost yet would have been paid for ten years ago. Now, we are in a rough spot facing foreclosure ourselves. I think i can understand that as a young (maybe single person) making 50,000 a year you would feel the advent of adventure and exploring your dreams and wishes. Yet you need to understand you need a back-up plan if it fails. Again the economy id the biggest factor here, best of luck though!

Perhaps! but that was about 12 years ago, and I can assure you that if I would have found him, they would have never found me. I could not do that today though.

..... Great chapter, long time coming I might add Seems Tom is moving along in the right direction, hopefully he will persevere here, but I fear of his father finding out and all hell breaking loose. I wonder when things settle down if Tom and Mark become an item! BTW, Arron seemed to be nonplussed at Josh's announcement!

....... As if you need a pimp Krista!!!

....... Thank you for clearing that up!!

.......... I never had a problem during the 'terrible twos' at all. Not sure if I should say this on an open forum or not, but I guess my logical thinking is behind my passion here. Around 13 she she was invited to a 'family' outing with her boyfriend and his family and cousins at the lake for the weekend, I met the parents and approved as there were going to be some 12 people including girls her age on this trip..... long story short, while the group decided to venture the lake the BF feigned being sick and my daughter said she would stay behind to look after him, they thought 'ok' because one of his male cousins also decided to stay. .......Long story short again, the cousin knew the BF raped my daughter but was afraid to say so. The family soon knew and was afraid, my wife and daughter were also afraid, .... so they never told until 3 months after that family moved somewhere out of state. They were aware I was still good at over a thousand yards, and prevented me from acting. ....Sigh! Truth be known, I looked for this piece of shit for two years afterwards, that is something my 'family' does not know of. Anyways, about a few months later my daughter and her goofy friends decide to steal a car and drive to Reno, (I taught her how to drive when she was 11 in my Jeep). I was a bit amazed she had manged to make it from Vegas to Tonopah Nevada, but when they were finally pulled over, the other parents ran out and got their precious daughters. I told them if they had a good cell, when told yes, I replied I would be there sometime tomorrow as I was totally pissed I had to take the day off work and drive somewhere I had never been to before. Hahaha! It is funny now that I think about it, but my car radio was out, so as I fumed the 4+ hours it took me to get there, I pretty much told her off for the 4+ hours on the way home! She never forgot that, and I really had no other problems with her accept a little pot smoking, which she doesn't do anyways. She got married to a guy with 3 very young kids, 5,7, and 9! See G-D believes in payback

.............Trevor nodded. “Yeah, I was worried the mast would be seen above the trees if we stopped there, so we kept going past it. We hid her in a side channel behind Stork Island.” That leads me to believe that the boat is further hidden by being on the north side of the island to hide her mast from view.

...So the Kookaburra is hidden from the town side of Kalbarri? The mast hidden by the island, which means it is on the north side of the island right? And that is on the north side of the river, right? So when Martin, Trevor and Shane went to get the photos of the boat docked they were on the north side of the river, right? When did they cross a bridge when Trevor drove? Maybe I missed it but I thought the entire idea was to hide the boat, makes no sense that it was on the south side of the island in plain view of the road side of the town.

....... “Mountain Goat Beer, bottled but not tamed, surefoot stout,” I smell a windup!!

Hey Q-man! As a father that basically raised my child by myself, I do not envy you But the joys come with the worries, so no problems here. It is not until they hit puberty or 13, whatever comes first that the problems arise. Stick with the punches and rolls, it will work out!!!

Shane was one of the first stories I read, it made me angry and I cried at the abuse, the story did lead me to GA, although I did not want to continue reading it as I felt it was a first hand experience story and had many truths behind it. I always thought the story was never completed, as his others were, I since discovered Vistas site, I read them all, it is a shame he is no longer writing.

...... 19 and 23!

............ Whoa, Ned has the gall to call Shane a thief?? Let's hope his sonar picks up a hidden compartment and Bridget's little game begins to crumble. I wonder if it was wise of her to c.c Basingstoke in her reply to Sanchez? P.S. WTF is curcumnavigation??

......... I'd prefer to see a prolongation of a chapter, but that said I think a the closing followed by a verdict needs a closure here. 'Daddy' needs to be indicted after the verdict and then closure can be complete in this saga. The 'off shore account' needs to be made known here.

Oh well, looks like it will reach a 'head' soon, Hahaha! I think Mr. B. will carry out the contract even if his employer is dead. The cartel will not care as the details come out, and not try to forfill it, leaving Trevor safe after all this time.

............... The goat will infer to one, perhaps after Dirk and Trevor make up and start talking they will come out to each other.

................ Like an old sheep, some meat is as you say tough and grisly yet a young sheep is very good, I'd assume the same of a young goat! , That said, I have always thought the goats inference to the pies, especially the Thanksgiving one were a hint of (Trevor's) his mother. Opps! Sorry for the double post!

................ Like an old sheep, some meat is as you say tough and grisly yet a young sheep is very good, I'd assume the same of a young goat! .

......... I think the goat answered my question here, no matter what Rachel is crime free, Dirk on the other hand needs to wait out the statutes as does Trevor although he has no clue why! She could could have flapped her mouth off and not worry about being prosecuted, as the goat made clear that even foreigners are not subject to US laws even if they know of the supposed crime.

............Actually I hear that goat meat is a great meal to eat!!

........... Yep, that was my first thought! Mr. B's plane, with a reluctant passenger. Then I tried to imagine other scenarios involving the Florida cast and came up empty
