Day after the Robbery in the western sequel

This past Saturday, I did the book signing at the Rotary Craft Fair in Alton, NH.  I was very pleased when the first person who purchased a book said, "I loved your western and I understand you have a sequel out to the book."  I showed her "Silver Lake's Transformation and she walked away a very happy reader.

Because of her comment, I plan to continue my postings of Silver Lake's Transformation since so many people are enjoying westerns today.

Here is:  A Day After the Robbery.

After breakfast, Todd and Lenny take the wounded robber to the sheriff’s office and place him in into one of the two cells.  Doc told them he should have his wound looked at every couple of days and he could do that in the cell.

Todd heads down to the livery stable, Todd asks Sam, “Have you ever seen the brand before on the horse I brought in last night?”

“No, sheriff, I’ve never seen that brand.  You might want to visit with Jeff the blacksmith and describe it to him.  Maybe, he’s fixed shoes on horses with that brand.”

Todd visits with Jeff and comes up with the same negative answer.  He doesn’t recognize the brand either.

Todd heads back to the office.  Inside Lenny tells him, “Our prisoner doesn’t want to answer any questions.”

“Does it surprise you?”

“Hell no!  Is there any information on the brand?”

“None, you stay in the office today except for afternoon rounds.  I’m going to try and find out where his partner wound up.”

Before he leaves town, Todd walks into the general store and checks with Randy to see what they might have taken.”

“So far I’m missing a 12 ga. shotgun, ammunition, and two revolvers of .44 cal.”

“I’m heading out to find the partner of the one we have in a cell.”

Made in New Hampshire Fair in Manchester NH

On Friday, April 17th, New Hampshire's Writers Project utilized a three day booth at the fair  for the very first time.  They invited New Hampshire authors who are members of the group to participate and they provided us with two hours of free time. I had two hours from 4-6 pm along with an author named Janis from Dover NH.  Both of us did very well for our two hour time period and I am waiting word to see how other authors did and will they continue the practice.

Next Books Signing

On Saturday, April 25th, I will be displaying and signing all seven of my books at the Alton Rotary Craft Fair from 9:00 am to 3:00 pm.  This will be my third year supporting the Alton Rotary and the Alton Community.  The fair is being held at the Alton High School which is off route 28 and just before you get to the traffic rotary.  Come and enjoy all of the good items the locals display.

Joe Sr. and Joe Jr.

Last September we had the pleasure of our oldest son visiting from Idaho.  He spent five days with us and left us with a wonderful gift.  Joe heads the locksmith department at Boise State University.  He installed a combination lock on our front door so that we don't need keys to enter.  We also lock the door by the push of one button.  We admired his locks in Idaho and he promised us he would send us one and install it.  Everyone who visits thinks this is really cool.  Here is a picture of the two of us.

No More Snow On The Ground

We do have soil underneath all that snow that sat around for months.  Most of southern New Hampshire can finally realize that spring is really here.  I am posting a picture of Millie our lady of the Millyard in Manchester.  

Passover 2015

In the picture below you see our dining room set up for ten seats to experience the second Seder night of Passover 2015.  Linda's two sons along with their significant others, and her daughter Dina was in from Utah for Passover.  Along with immediate family, we invited Linda's former mother-in-law, her first husband who is the second son of her former mother-in-law and Gertrude's third son whose name is Mark.  We were all together at Gertrude's house for the first Seder on the night before.
