Trouble is like a freight train that pulls slowly out of the station and gradually builds up speed and momentum. I like the switch to the other track (i.e. "Ye ain't no kin to Pappy). Thanks

The twist and turn of what we yearn can leave you ever wonder'n. Amidst a spurn of what you learn that leaves the ground a thunder'n. Glad you posted this Judy, the ending was a double edged sword.

This was great. Rednecks are in a league of their own. No pretenses, just fun to be around. Beats the stuffed shirts by a long shot. Vince

That is a hoot! Thanks for sharing, Judy. Also, I wish to thank you for your kind comments re: When the Time is right. Giving my daughter up for adoption, was the hardest thing I ever did in my life. Times were so different 45 years ago. Thank you for caring. Love, Lainie
