Wow - I have been on the road for a week with very limited internet access, and just got home late last night. So I just HAD to catch up on this story today. And what a finish! Especailly the concluding chapter, with Jimmy now a rescue swimmer with the Coast Guard - what a unique way to wrap this up - and a great tribute, as you say, to the men and women who protect and serve us all.
STS - thank you for this wonderful glimpse into the fictional lives of your characters. Jimmy and Greg were just amazing - so real, so close, so determined to accomplish their goals. I have truly enjoyed this story on so many levels - PLEASE don't stop writing. Nothing wrong with a new story following Jimmy's struggles and successes in his first year of HS swimming - or perhaps Greg's first year as a 'Cock. College swim teams on overnight away meets, (gentle) hazing/teasing rituals (at my university, I understand the freshmen had to jump naked from the 3-meter board) - all of this provides story ideas for future chapters - at least I hope so!
