Uh oh.  Batten down the hatches for Hurricane Wayne! LOL.  But Colson's right, he just might be a distraction.  Lord knows he'd be change of pace from the nurses and doctors.  I hope Ellery is awake when Wes does get there - that should be an interesting conversation!

And a swooping, hovering Colson is adorable - and, yep, even "sweet."   :) Thanks, Louise.

he doesn't like being called sweet though... it impugns his manliness!

okay it took quite a while, due to being very distracted by a myriad of other silly things, but here's chapter 69!

Whoa...I did not see that coming!  And things were complicated enough when they thought they at least knew the players!   :-\ 

Go easy on Ellery but remember – under that cracked skull he’s still Ellery an he ain’t helpin much right now.”

LOL.  That's exactly what I thought when Ellery said that Joe could come over as long as Ellery was the one asking the questions.  Thanks, Louise!

SPOILERS



Mabel is a lovely person.  It's not unusual for women to sometimes think they can change a man or save him from himself; but, of course,no one person can ever "change" another person.   It's been interesting to watch Wesley interact with both Bates and Mabel.  He has good instincts and a direct, but non-combative manner that helps him get the information he needs.  And, of course, he's a naturally compassionate person.   As the Fearless Leader, he's a fine example for his men.   And now he has the address book!  Thanks, Louise.

I neglected to post that I was out watching Star Trek tonight and so missed my writing window.  But I have very little to do this weekend except get prepped for moving to Chicago... so I'll unavoidably be doing more writing tomorrow!!
