If Louise were to end up here in Portland, I would remind everyone of Tom Lawrence's philosophy: There are no coincidences. Everything happens for a reason.

I agree and I can't believe how happy it makes me to hear that Louise might be moving into your neighbourhood Leslie!  :)

Ellery

We like Ellery a lot
He’s clever, sweet and
bloody hot

He’s so good looking
full of wit
Never patient
with a twit

He’s far from perfect
So damn what?
He not a toady
or a swat!

Ennis thinks he’s beautiful
and stands guard at his door
You only have to look his way
to feel his fist smash in your jaw

If any threaten his dear boy
they really must dumb
They’ll end up
dumped into a ditch
with Ennis’ boot
right up their bum!

I'm loving this Jo! As always  :)

While we're in the mood to reminisce about Taking Chances, I just have to mention my favorite moment.

When Ennis and Ellery were about to share their very first tender moment, Jack's journal fell from Ennis's pocket and nipped everything in the bud, so to speak.

Ennis began to sob, and Ellery comforted him. Deep love was shared between them already because Ellery respected Ennis and Jack, even showing reverence for the love Ennis and Jack had shared over all the years.

I was a reluctant reader at first, not thinking I could imagine Ennis with anyone else, but with this first tender and deeply loving moment, I was hooked on the Laramie Saga.

Yep, Brokeback got me good, and the Laramie Saga got me, too, thanks be to God!
Peace be with y'all,
Fred

I'm hoping dupree turns out bi. As in a real Bi. there is something about this guy which sort of subtley screams it, but maybe that's because I AM bi lol.

He sort a reminds me of me when i was his age, in a LOT of ways, but me I was absolutely bi by then roflmao.

Don't know if he will be or not, I'm in A Second Chance and avoid discussion and reading future books like plague.
