LOL!! Yes, it certainly is, Richard!  I just can't get out of the habit of thinking of minutia in the singular!  I think it's because I like the way it sounds!   :laugh:

And I just realized, Louise - The Sunday Night Mystery Movie included "McMillan & Wife" starring Rock Hudson.  I wonder what Ellery thought of Rock Hudson?  Somehow, I can't see the boys getting as excited about Rock Hudson as they do about Clint Eastwood!   :)

The last chapter was so loving and warm. Wes and Edna are wonderful people with huge giving hearts and I really love them. Ennis and Ellery are so lucky to have them in their lives  :) Wes is just so great with Ennis. And with Ellery.

Hi,
I haven’t been around here long time ( RL), the new story took me kind of aback too letting me sad and happy all  at once I never thought the blissful “reception part” would turn into sorrow, regret and tears but I’m thankful that Jack was not omitted, forgotten in Ennis’s mind even during what is supposed to be the happiest phaze of  his life, that he still feels somehow committed, bound to Jack.   I love the direction you’re leading the story Louise, love Ennis looking for piece, for reconciliation between his two man and his own soul.

injest just posted this photo in the "Allure of a Man" thread.

But as soon as I saw it I could only think of Nicky Sampson washing his Red Firebird.  He he he!

I always imagined the Cantreel/Del Mar house plan in the following way. You enter the front door into the oblong- shaped living room. Looking straight ahead you see a a doorway left of centre which leads to a passage and into the bedroom which has an ensuite bathroom off to the right. The bed faces the bathroom door. Ellery sleeps on the right and Ennis on the left. Looking right of centre of the living room back wall, a galley kitchen runs off at a right angle to the living room. The back door at the far end of the kitchen leads to a back deck.

Poor Ennis. He can't have a good old bawling session without the whole world and his brother finding out about it. Maybe Ennis needs a shed.
