Well done on this one as well. I really do need to get to my writing if I hope to post the next chapter to Apparitions at Twelve Oaks Lane but reading well-written submissions do aid me with getting the pump primed. When I saw that you had posted another one, I had to give it a read too. Great job on this as well. Keep up the good writing...Gideon

Bonnie is trying to get Grandpa interested in seeing Nick. One day he does appear on the beach, but neither one seems interested in the other. Nick does not attempt to be friendly with Grandpa.

Thanks for sharing this. This chapter had a nice flow and is nicely written. I really liked the artwork you chosen for this. Good Luck with the rest of this book.

Comment from barbara.wilkey
Very interesting.
"You are alright aren't you?" (comma before aren't)
"See honey she is okay," and he left going once more to his beloved garden. (spacing issure, and you probably have a speech tag in the previous sentence.)

Grandpa, to. . . there you are, Bonnie.. . .
"See honey,. . .
Everyone thought. . .Rewrite without using so many buts. It's a runon sentence.

Comment from FredCollingwood
Wow! 100! It's amazing that he gets along as well as he does. One thing you might look at:
Everyone thought he was like 87 years old, but I have seen in the old Bible at the house that Gramps is close to 100 years old, but he is healthy and I love him very much. > you might consider breaking up this sentence. You have three conjunctions.

I hope Nick isn't jealous of grandpa and tries to hurt him as Bonnie is very fond of her gramps. I enjoyed reading this excellent chapter.

Comment from RebelRose
I think it would sound better to say "He is very old and sometimes thinks I am his wife who died many years ago." This is an interesting chapter.

Brief little chapter. Without reading the other chapters I can pick up the clues as to what is happening. Maybe a little fine tuning needed. Good luck.
