Oh Bill you have written another great chapter. I had to laugh out loud when you were describing seeing Erin naked. :) I love reading your book. Many is the time I have gone fishing with my mom and dad. Thanks for the memories, Shirley

This is very cute.

My grandparents' lake was beautiful. It was on the small side by design. When it was built twenty years ago, the lake guy said there was no limit on size. It was located at the bottom of a natural basin and was spring fed. Lake guy said, "We can make it as big as you want. It's a natural site." They had it made five acres. It was perfect.
(seven 'was, and one 'had'. I am finding this a very passive. It coniues, but I'm not going to point it out throughout.
except here you don't need it. Our fishing trip (-was) ended when he told

once you get out of the monaloge and the characters take shape the story is very interesting and intriguing.

Hope you have a lovely weekend, and a Happy easter
hugs
Heidi

Well, Bill, as usual, you packed a lot of homespun
country wisdom into this chapter. Virge has a lot of
Uncle Remus in him. And every boy has to see his first naked girl some time. What a thrill.
Good stuff, Bill.

Peace, Lee

This is almost a love story, Bill. Or maybe a fish story. Or a fishy love story? In any case, it's sweet and made me smile. Very well done. :) nancy

First the edit: "We all went over (and) took off our shoes."
This sentence is missing a word (that's all).

What a lovely, touching chapter - so sweet. Very nicely done. I enjoyed it tremendously.

Rabbit learned a lot this summer. I love the innocent lines with a touch of humor about him seeing Erin naked.
The door just sprung open(sure it did), he knows she's a real red head, she could never be his teacher and the ending when she wished he was fifteen years older.
I like the first part about using just what you need and no more. And the tomato being the product of horse poop was priceless.

Lots of gems in this one, Bill.

A few compound sentences need commas but I didn't want to stop reading to note them. LOL

Loved Rabbit's cheeky answer to Erin. The whole way he looks at life is refreshing and I hate to see this story end. I am enjoying this more and more. Great job.

This is a good chapter Bill. It was written very realistically and easily holds a reader's attention.

There is one sentence though that you may want to review.

We all went over took off our shoes..

There seems to be something missing here. JW
