Father Was A Fancier

.

Tara I loved that story. Really, truely loved it. Thank you for sharing it.

Wow, such a powerful story. I real with interest and was intrigued by the writing style of this man. Such a long story, so well written. I wonder what gives some a special skill of holding us spellbound when a story was told. This was a story of such beauty, that it will be mulled in my mind, I know, probably over and over, as I was by the side of this man as he recounted the story of the Golden Pencilled Hamburg. Wow. It made me feel sad that the Father sold the birds to pay for the Son's education. But that is what so many parents do, their sacrifice of things for offspring. So interesting, that style of writing, and I enjoyed the story in an immense degree. Where on earth these things are found, these memories that people care to account, awesome!! I loved the read, thank you for sharing these thoughts, very thought provoking, especially about the knowing the right matings, to make right birds, smiling. Have that wonderful day, CynthiaM.

Such an observant woman to know that I have indeed not read all the tales, and I can bet my bottom dollar that there are some good uns!! You are 100% bang on with this -- I have such good intention to read and read and read, and just seem to never that that extra moment to go where I want to go. My agenda.....read the Tales From Rat World on your site, good idea, and yep, gonna go there and read..lawdy, Tara, I love to read things, and accounts of the human being experiences are one of my favourites. Gonna go to the Tales of the Rat World tomorrow mornin'. I know so many others love to read tales, so perhaps we will be all a-readin' tales on your website, listening to those tales of yore. Beautiful and wonderful days, CynthiaM.

What a wonderful story! Lou
