life. If you read between the lines this story is full of idiots. It was a good read.
Good writers write good stories, you are one of the best,Thanks!
I look forward to the next chapter as my eyes continue to moisten.A lovely story so far!
This is more realistic than most. No overendowed fools, huge boobed bimbos, ultra rich jerks, or former SEALS, just everyday country folk. One of the things I like about your stories is the normality of the characters.
Which is not surprising! I thought it
was wrapped and would finish with this
chapter. Now you have me worried as there
could be another mountain over the
horizon.
Great story, but you have me worried now. Another mountain for that poor bugger?
The character development is superb. Thanks.
i've read this story before. i love it. it also made me tear up. just a little bit. thank you.
Ch. 3 is the final chapter and has been submitted. Hopefully it will be posted tomorrow. I don't usually reply to the comments in the comment forum, but I do want to thank you all for commenting. I usually answer feedback. For those who have read this story on another sight, Ch.3 has some changes in it. Thank you all again for you mostly kind comments.
With respect

as someone noted you are one of very few writers i automatically read when i see a story submitted.... i liked this one as always great character developement ...maybe a bit mushy at times....but i hope this story does have a happy ending ....this character makes me feel at least sympathetic to him ...as i think we all at times feel as if life has given us to much to handle...to much of that mountain to climb....and as we strive to cope and adjust and have a happy and successful life i hope josh and sherry do also...keep writing ...i only wish i could express myself half as good as you do in your stories. thankx roadbird...
You brighten any day you favor us with a credible sometimes mushy story. Your people are acceptably real and act it.<P>
Would that more writers could convey through dialog what most of us are comfortable with. You can be arousing but real - respectful but unintentionally or mistakenly cruel - your characters and you are believable.<P>

Well, he has gotten over a coupla mountains, at least.. I sense there will be another hurdle to pass or he would have asked her to marry him now.. They both sound like great young people.. The kids also sound very well mannered and amiable.. All in all it sounds like it should be a good marriage.. An enjoyable reading.
Hi Sir Chris over here, this story is an another gem from you.
Nice to see a light at the end of the tunnel and have it not be a train - finally -
I've read this author's work in the Loving Wives section. Good writer who usually develops good stories. Do they have more mountains to climb? Why would a café close at 6 PM?
Because it's a diner in a small farm town. Biggest meal of the day would be breakfast. Most folks wouldn't have time for lunch unless they were running errands or picking up supplies. Come evening, as Josh explained when asking permission to date Sherry, you call it a day when the chores are done, and get up early again the next morning.
Ok, pay the bank interest so as to leave the savings intact. Perhaps Josh and his grandfather weren't aware that the bank makes a profit by charging higher interest on loans than they pay on savings.
The way the writer had Josh accuse Sherry of being after his money was perhaps even more ridiculous.
It all feels a bit rushed, there is no build up to the relationship. I'm glad he got his girl it just lacked something.
With a little luck - thats all we need in our living ….. you can be beautiful handsome intelligent smart just name it, but being on the right spot within the right time or meeting the person who pushes your luck into different spheres and so on
