Hi, this was a good chapter. I know I need to get my finger out and get back to writing. Keep it coming. Thanks again, as usual. Wishing you a Happy New Year.

This gets more and more involved. Who is leaving the beer bottles? This mystery of yours has me still wondering. Good writing.I hope you add a chapter of kind wishes to "For Kathy" as she will be in the hospital for several more weeks.
:-) Happy New Year to you! Karen

Hello Gretchen,
Yeah, the modern day Clint doesn't resemble Rowdy very much, but he's still on heck of an actor. This was an interesting exchange between Preston and Miranda. I think a lot of people believe that if you're old, you're going to be naturally upright, but look at the average age of congress, and tell me how many of them tell the truth? There is one issue with a word. I think you mean now instead of know when Preston is speaking of how Miranda looks compared to his mom. Well done gal.
Have a blessed evening.
Tom

Thank you so much, Tom. It was, indeed, a misspell. Gretchen
Comment from Carol Hillebrenner
I love it when a kid says something significant and wise. In real life they do that sometimes. Preston had a real reason to know adults lie because it was done to him. So, is Dougie calling and leaving around his beer bottles? I'm looking forward to the next chapter of this very enjoyable story. Correct this one word: . . . like you do (now).

Comment from Wendy G
It was good to see the continuation of this story. Miranda has good instincts, and if she feels Dougie would not do that kind of thing, she's probably right. But is someone else using his name? Yes, at seventeen, many teens like Preston are very aware of the realities of the lower side of human human nature. Well written. Hope the next chapter comes soon.
