The bat struck its target with a thud. The target hit the ground with an equally loud thud. I jumped around the corner ready to take a second swing an...d was rocked to my core. On the ground was the most petite little person that I had ever seen. She was maybe four feet tall, wore a tight little green dress, little pointed shoes and had gorgeous blond hair. Her forehead was crushed and in one look, it was obviously that I had just killed this little girl. Little girl? Well not really. She had. “Army?” I asked the old man.“Confederate. You got a problem with that?”“Nope, my brother here was a Captain in your sides cavalry.”“Well then, in that case, I guess I’ll try to save him,” the doc grumbled.The doc struck me as being a mean old cuss but having seen men wounded and how the good, competent docs had treated them, I could tell this doc was a good one. In no time at all the doc had the wound wrapped and he began barking out orders.“You men, get me a board over here so we can carry him. With all of the traveling, shaking hands, and banquet meals, Doc just wanted to relax for a couple of days at my house and was in the mood for some good seafood. We went to a nearby restaurant that I knew had very delicious seafood of many variety and after we ate, we took an order back to my place for later. We were almost through eating when my wife called to check in with me. She avoided questions about where she was, although I could hear voices and rude comments about me in the background.. I found a lounge chair by the pool and had everyone (mostly the girls) waiting on me hand and foot. They were all bringing me drinks and snacks all day long. The guys come over and set around just chatting in general. Although the girls pampered me a lot they also teased me and kept me hard most of the day. When they would bring me food or drink they would make a point of doing something sexy. Mom and Kay brought me some lemonade and set down on the lounger next to me. We started talking.
