About this ebook

 

GEORGE GRANT RETIRED from baseball after leading a professional team to back-to-back World Series Championships. George is content to return to his first love—farming. He's looking forward to getting back on a tractor and helping with the spring planting.

 

That won't happen for two months. In early March George and Marcy plan to spend several days visiting with their friends Toby and Mona Corbet. Toby is the baseball coach at the State University in the state capital. Toby was George's teammate when the Central High Tigers won their first state baseball championship.

 

Then George and Marcy are going to spend a week in Phoenix attending Cactus League baseball games before taking a leisurely trip up through California and Oregon while winter turns into spring back at the farm.

 

As 56-year-old George has discovered many times in his life, things don't always turn out like they are planned. A devastating accident and suddenly George is faced with a challenge unlike anything he has ever faced before.

Author

Jay Henry Peterson

Jay Henry Peterson grew up as a farm kid on the northern Great Plains. He milked cows, handled beef cattle, hogs and chickens and spent many hours on tractors and other equipment planting and harvesting small grains, corn and soybeans. He began writing as a teenager, creating whimsical poems and stories to amuse his high school classmates. Most of that unpublished writing has been lost. After being passed around by his classmates, much of it was wadded up and tossed in the trash basket in some classroom. He often wrote sports and feature articles for his high school and college newspapers. His college years were interrupted when he was called to serve in the United States Army, a time that included a year in combat operations in the swamps and jungles of South Vietnam. He returned to college after the service and earned a bachelor’s degree in journalism.   During a professional career of more than four decades as a printing and publications executive his writing was largely confined to business projects. Jay Henry Peterson is retired. He recently returned to writing for pleasure, this time concentrating on short stories and novels. He and his wife live in Arizona.
