A group of True or Maybe untrue stories. Hopefully enjoyment for all ages

These are stories of hunting, fishing, UFOs, and observations of the outdoors. I tell many of them from my perspective in parking lots where I have exiled myself so as not to interfere with my good wife's shopping. I have been told that I am a good story teller and have had many five star reviews for my previous book and at least a couple for this one so far. I hope you enjoy the read if you choose to make the purchase, either as an eBook or a paperback. Thanks , Neale 



Excerpt

IN THE PARKING LOT AND WHY

I used to go into the grocery store with my wife Nancy, a normally patient and agreeable partner. When we needed to resupply the pantry, it seemed like the likely place to locate what we needed. As we proceed I thought that I was helping her when I asked questions like; "Isn't that expensive?", "Do we need that again already?" or "What do we need that for?" To keep me from breaking her concentration with my inane questions she began asking me to go locate items that were on the far end of the store and bring them back to the cart. If I found the item, my question then was, "Is this the right thing?" She would patiently say "NO." And send me back for the other brand.
After a few times doing this, she went into the next tactic. She would send me on a long hunt for some insignificant item. It would take me more time to find it and then I would have to find her! From that point on, it was a constant game of hide and seek. She could hide at the ends of the aisles like no other wife. I finally had an epiphany. She was doing her best to keep me out of her hair. I decided I had to do things differently.
Since this was not a fun way to shop, I made the decision to stay in the car and wait for her to do the rest. When she comes out, I drive up to her and she loads the groceries in the back seat. If she has a heavy load, I get out and help her. Especially if there is a thirty pack of Miller's Light or if there are other heavy items,




Professional Reviews

Fun and Enjoyable read
This was a fun and enjoyable read. Tid-bits of information from shopping with your spouse, to hunting that elusive buck. Told with humor, but a serious message here and there.
After reading this book I will smile when I see a bird hopping around the parking lot, or a Loomis armored truck. Things that will remind me of this country boy’s view of the world.
Nice job Coach!
