Now we have a baby to worry about. I knew Grandpa would have moonshine hidden around. I am not at all surprised. LOL. I am glad Grandma got out of the well all right. Good writing.

Hello, Tootie,
How are you? I like your story. It's interesting to read the letters. I like how you described when grandma fell into the stone well. What a story! Good job.

Comment from Sandra Stoner-Mitchell
That would be so sad if Cathy lost her baby. The first child that God sends us is so precious. They all are, but that first one is the one that makes two people become a family. I was so pleased you got grandma out before she died of the cold or drowned. So, grandpa has been hiding his homemade moonshine! LOL! I enjoyed this part, my friend. Well done! :)) Sandraxxx

Comment from Mistydawn
You did it to me again, you made me cry. Those darn letters get me every time. Your story is very well-written, interesting. I'm glad Grandma is alright. I had to laugh at the part about her giving grandpa hell. You built the characters up so well that I could picture it in my mind. Grandma yapping a mile a minute and grandpa ducking her blows. I do hope Cathy and the baby are alright. You and your darn hooks, grrr.

Comment from Gideon300
Touching love letters. It does make you feel that you are there sharing their intimacy. I love the stuff about grandma in the well because of grandpa hiding his drink. And then he's in the dog house and trying to make up for it by cooking a meal. A very good chapter.

Comment from robyn corum
Hello, friends,
A nice chapter with lots of memories. UGH - those Kraft dinners! hahaha
It's always heart-breaking to think of those who have given all in service to the people of the US. It's one of the bravest acts of all. God bless them all.
One note for you (well, two):
He tied one end of the rope around his mule's neck, then made a slip knot in the other end. He said it would make it easier for Grandma to put it over her head, then (cinch) it around her waist.
--> I'm sorry, guys. This would not work. The mule would strangle to death and Grandma would not survive either, I'm pretty sure. You'd have to have a collar on the mule and attach the rope to that. And Grandma would slip the rope under her armpits.
--> make sure you see (cinch) is the proper spelling
I enjoyed this chapter very much! Thank you!
