| The Boy and the Bear
It was in December. The day was warm for the last
month of the year, one of those near perfect days with hordes of white cumulus
clouds hung in a field of blue that covered the golden earth like a
mantle. It was the kind of day where... ( added 93 days 21 hours ago.) |
| Last Hunt
It was fall. The old
man had made 81 years. Seventy years he had hunted the wily deer of the

| Hunter’s Nose Hunting deer by stalking methodically through a forest or sitting in a tree stand over a well-traveled deer run requires constant scanning of the terrain, alert senses, camouflaged appearance, and disguised scents. One attains the first two by... ( added 152 days 11 hours ago.) |
| Cruise of the CS Stonewall / Part II

| Cruise of the CS Stonewall / Part I
As warships go, she was small, only one hundred and

with a rotating turret mounting two 70 pound Armstrong rifles aft and a 300
pound Armstrong gun amidships. Her... ( added 162 days 9 hours ago.) |
| The Browning Nomad
He was a tough man, full of vim

swamp. He had turned sixty-four this past spring and his hair was gray but
the arms were still knotted in muscle and he... ( added 169 days 22 hours ago.) |
| El Bruin
The morning began calmly. I sipped my coffee and pondered

visit with the... ( added 175 days 11 hours ago.) |
| The Remnants Of The Team Stood There In The Ever

floor… seemingly a never-ceasing wet that never stopped... ( added 177 days 23 hours ago.) |
| Ancestors & Woodpiles
Ancestors. All of us have them or should. Some are phenomenal in strength of
character, some are disreputable, and all are interesting. Here in the South we
honor our forebears through oral family histories, the written word... ( added 254 days 22 hours ago.) |
| A Day In The Life Of A Cowboy The sky was graying in the East. Across the flat of the prairie one could see the land meeting the sky. Large clumps of sagebrush clung to the drift fence on the horizon, their silhouettes looking like huge periods dotting the morning sky. The... ( added 264 days 19 hours ago.) |
| Too Busy Praising God
The eighty-four years had
passed swiftly. He had learned the habits of the Appalachian wildlife by

hiding places of the trout that lurked in the dark pools of... ( added 273 days 17 hours ago.) |
| Suffocation or Salvation?
The tablet was manually
administered to the pregnant woman’s cervix. The woman’s body began immediately
