November Hunt

He waved dismissively. “That’s in the past. No use talking about what we can’t change.”

He looked like he was getting agitated again, so I changed rather than let go of the topic. “When was the last time you saw him?”
That was the right question because Julius smiled. “Well of course he always sent me a birthday card. My birthday is the week before Christmas, so I get used to being forgotten. Not Tom, t...hough. He never forgot to drop me a birthday note. As for seeing him, the boy came to visit me once a year every year at the beginning of muskie season.

Looked forward to it every year.”MoreLess
