Yeah, Steve's a man for all seasons, he is.

Thank you for reading and commenting so generously.

Truth to tell, I can really relate to how things can shift from dark to light, based on nothing you can foresee.

Well, thank you for reading and commenting so generously.

Steve is indeed what my Father used to refer to as "a beautiful man": talented, poised, humane, and outer-directed. So glad you enjoyed his story.

Thank you, GA, for reading and commenting so generously. I take it as high praise, for which I am nothing but grateful.

It was Geoffrey's. As for it being fabulous, I respectfully dissent. So much so, that I referred to it as Denny's By the Sea.

Lol..thank you, dear captain.

You're nothing but welcome, Marciana. Thank you for reading, and commenting so generously. It was a pleasure.

Am honored to have done so, Papillon…

Gosh, that is the sweetest thing to read. Thank you, Danielle.

You're welcome. Thank you for your kind words.
