Odd just gets better as it goes along. At first I was luke warm to this character but with each book he has grown on me. His simple view of life is so wonderfully uncomplicated that I envy him his outlook on life. Even when faced with situations that could have some agonizing over the answers Odd just seems to grasp the necessities as they are and deals with it. I wonder where the ending of this story will lead to since it was left wide open.

This story hit home for me. My grandfather built the soddy (a house made of blocks of prairie sod) that my mother was born in on the Colorado plains. The spirit of the people who carved out a living on those plains could best be described as tenacious as a bulldog. And here I thought that Sloppy Joes were named after my uncle Joe Masterson. Ohh well I like Ms Shelnutt's version better since I had my first one after moving to Denver. Her depiction of the people in her family make them recognizable as all of those who have fought to overcome life's boulders. I look forward to her next story.
DARK DIAMOND TWILIGHT: Last coal load out from Ene&hellip by Linda G. Shelnutt

In her story "Dark Diamond Twilight" Miss Shelnutt gives us a look at how working men relate to their machines. Her husband Tom operates his bob cat loader as if he were on a dance floor made of black diamonds as he scoops up buckets full of coal to load on a bigger machine. What some people would view as a catastrophe due to the loss of their jobs these men see as one more chance to do what they love. The politics of it have them baffled but the joy of working makes it all worth while. Here is the grit that made America great, people working for the joy of it, even if it is the Last Day. When they clock out tonight it will be over, the coal is still there but the business types… Read more
