Saturdays
Perry Hinegardner
language (Parker Davis, Feb. 25, 2011)The stories in this book are childhood occurrences, “remember when” tales my brother and I love to pass back and forth.They weren’t written to shade anyone’s character, merely to hand down and perhaps provide insights for our descendants. I view it as an opportunity to lend color to old photographs.Saturdays to me as a child provided endless adventures that were enjoyed immensely. Please read and decide for yourselves. If, however, you happen to step on Cowboy’s reading glasses by mistake, what the heck!
