So at this stage you really hadn't clued in on the best friend thing, it was always just a bunch of you getting together for baseball or whatever the game was.

I have never had what I*d describe as a best friend until my second wife.

Bill,
Your strong characterization keeps me wanting more of your story. I'm of your same generation, and I think we had it tough.
Exceptional work, Bill. Very worthy of six stars.

I'll bet you learned to fight after your encounter with Lloydy. Too bad you didn't ask for a rematch to win back the girl's affections. Very nice job. Thanks for sharing.

Comment from palmart
Great travel both in time and places!! Perfect description of the doubts and uncertainties that a young boy faces in his evolution to become a man. Decision are tough sometimes (like the one to be part of a fist fight), and did not think of consequences, clearly described in all your conclusion. Again, perfect travel in time and places! Thanks for sharing!

Comment from Mary Vigasin
On a day when I needed a smile, Bill, this was a wonderfully well-written story. This was very entertaining, all those cousins, I myself had 18 first cousins. Little girls can be a little fickled.
Thank you for the read.
Regards,
Mary

Comment from RGstar
Fantastic conclusion. A story within a story. I was not expecting the irony or the psychological aspects, well, at least not so poignant.
Just very good writing.
I could have read a few more chapters.
What about a book Bill?
Writing like this can only be a best.
I would read from the start.
My best.
Have a great Sunday.

Comment from Pam (respa)
-Good image and story, Bill.
-I enjoyed reading it.
-Good descriptive detail
about where you grew up
and how things were done
back in the day.
-I can relate to growing up
in a small town, although none
of my relatives lived there except
my mom and dad!
-It must have been a strange
experience, and certainly led
to some dramatic moments in
your life.
-Thanks for sharing the story.

Your story is very well written and you do a marvelous job of character descriptions and developing them as you go. Your ending brings the reader in and interested... and a little compassionate too. :). Well done, Bill.
