Congratulations on this brilliant story!
You have, with carefully chosen words, allowed the reader to see the backstory between the lines, and told the story completely. I'm jealous! :)
I'm glad I took the time to read this. Again, congratulations.

Very authentic and creative writing conjured up through a seasoned traveler in time.

This should be expanded on Judy...It has the makings of a sensational Children's Book Story.

Have a Safe Journey Judester...Q.T...Phil.

What a terrific story! I think I'll start tossing some of Mom's old knickknacks onto the kitchen tile floor and stand ready with a dustpan to sweep up the diamonds. Oh, what an uplifting ending! Wish I had a six. :)

Ha ha you so fonny. Thanks for the cute review and phantom star. I guess if I had more words I would have said he smuggled them out of South Africa after a military stint but alas, only 75. Have a wonderful day I am off to Zanzibar, j

Lol. Cute story complete with puns. I wonder where Grandma got all those diamonds. One place that needs an extra space:
" Granny,after a" (Grandma, after a)
