Hi, Larry,

Your work continues to grow stronger with each piece I write. I believe you are a wonderful student who studies the corrections given to you and LEARNS from them.

This is a WONDERFUL work of imagery: 'A long line of smoke bellowed billowed into the air, rolling and spinning along the spine of the train as it rumbled down the iron rails, making its way through the Cascade mountains. The gray of the early morning hours had long disappeared, and Levi was looking through a small window. He was taking in as much of the Cascade rainforest as he could, before the train moved on to something new.'

Thank you for sharing this piece and I look forward to more of your work. I'm also anticipating an avalanche of work from you come June.

~MP~

    Thank you M.P. As I get closer to retiring I would like to challenge myself to writing new stories. Not just westerns, but to challenge myself in different areas as well. I can't afford college, so I must learn wherever I can. I look forward to hearing from you as the story continues.

As always your story line is griping and well told.
I love the characters of Levi and Badger and now we have another interesting old timer in Casper Hayes. Soon I'm sure J.B. and Kyle will join the bunch and make this story even better. I know you are cooking up a real adventure for us. Well done Larry. Nancy:)

    Thank you, I am debating on what will happen to a couple of the characters as the story moves forward. Who knows, my decision might even surprise me.

Thank you Mr. Green. This is a very good story. I felt myself on the train looking out at the scenery that God provided. I traveled once on train to Chicago from San Antonio and it was beautiful country all the way. No buffalo though just water and sunshine from the skies. Thank you for sharing.

    Hi poetwatch, I still find that life get in the way sometimes from spending much time in front of this computer. So there are times that I have to play catch-up on my review responses. I'm sorry, I should have gotten back to you sooner. Thank you very much for your kind review. If you are in San Antonio, I have been there and the trip was wonderful. You have a great day. Mr. Green

Good strong characters with good dialogue. The storyline is good and fast moving. It held my interest until it ended and then I wanted more to read. You did a very good job. Enjoy your Sunday. Shirley
