What a great story. It is full of action and suspense and the good guy won. This guy would make a good character in a book. I did not find any spag. Good job.

This is a good contest entry. The start was good, and it picked up pace in the middle, the ending sentence was powerful and kinda twist in the story.
best of luck

Comment from JW
This was a very touching story and your use of description was excellent. The reader could easily visualize the scene before them.
One recommendation: Many times it's better to use Yeah, instead of Yea.
Great job.

bhogg,
this is a terrific story, my friend. Wonderful details within your descriptives allow great imagery, while the strength of the story is you dialogue, which is realistic and believable. Good luck in the contest.

This was absolutely fantastic! I had goose-bumps at the end. You may want to check if God send isn't actually Godsend, but other than that I truly enjoyed the story. Let's hear it for the old guys! Thanks for inviting me to check-out your portfolio... Kurt

Comment from fairydancer
This is a very gripping and intriging story - I like!
You have described your 'strong character' very well.
I really like how the 'past it, quiet looking one' (no offense meant! LOL) beats the two young whipper snappers!
I like how he walks on the railroad ties - good idea!
One possible spag: "What are (you) doing old man?
Well done - good luck in the competition - Cally :)

This is a great story which kept my attention from the begining. You made a good description of the battle with the two young men and the end gives me comfort.
Congratulations!

Comment from M. Karol
Wonderful write hogg. Only seen in movies. Yes he was a strong character in every sense and the girl was lucky.
I like the end though; some sort of balm for the hero.

Thanks for your insight M! I really was trying to balance out the hero. First the walk on the railroad ties and then the connect with the girl.
