Tales from Auburn Creek

We have all seen things we wish we could unsee or better yet, forget. But for whatever reason we cannot.
Part One of the Season Two of Tales from Auburn Creek is just such a dilemma. Hope you enjoy 'The Unfair'.

There usually is something that reminds us of our childhood that still reverberates inside of us when are become adults.  For me there are more than a few but the latest installment of The Tales from Auburn Creek has a more innocent tone about it.  Most of us were socially awkward at that age and that feeling never seems to leave us.  Sure we outgrow it but it’s still there at least it is for me as you will hear in this segment entitled “The Dance.”

Growing up can be such an awkward time. Looking back we all recognize the innocence of it. The good thing is as you get older you realize we all went through it. For me the dances at the 4H building during Middle School were about as awkward as you can get. You will find this in the latest edition of the Tales From Auburn Creek entitled 'The Dance'.

One question you always get when you work in the media is how did you get started in the business?  Most will tell you about getting experience during college and then an internship and so on and so on.  Mine started much earlier than that.  As I have always said God made sure I was fed but he was about to teach me how to fish and that changed everything as you hear in this installment of the Tales from Auburn Creek entitled Jim.

Some might refer to it as a day of reckoning.  Others might say it was a blessing.   Without a doubt it was one of the most painful times of my life but it was also an answer to my prayers.  This is the latest installment from The Tales from Auburn Creek entitled “An End as Well as a Beginning.”

There is a slight twist in the latest installment in the Tales from Auburn Creek.  Just like there is often times in life. It was really just happenstance.  You write it, then you try to think of a name for the story and there it is. The title just brings it all together. So goes the latest installment entitled “The Drink.”

My brother warned me about what could happen.  He said it would seem like just innocent fun at the beginning but then turn into something no one saw coming.  I don’t know if I really believed him at the time but after this incident I gained a better understanding.  So goes the latest installment from “Tales from Auburn Creek” entitled Joy Ride.

He lost his wife and his home in the country, well sort of.  His children talked him into moving into town. He didn’t want to do it but they convinced him. He still owns all he had amassed over his nearly 80 years which was impressive but you would never know it. It is often said a man is what he wears. It was kind of a manufactured line to sell the best in clothes. Well, he was what he wore and that is part of what makes him so interesting. Hope you enjoy the first fictional Tale from Auburn Creek entitled 'Glenn'.

None of us truly know why things happen the way they do.  We like to act like we know but really we don’t.  We also can’t really tell what those things will do or mean to us.  In this story you might ask, what does little league baseball, a boys training school and a Sigma Delta Chi Award have in common?  This segment from the Tales of Auburn Creek entitled “Three Strikes You’re Out” will answer that for you.

This country is facing so many problems.  Crime, murder, drug addiction and mental health issues just to name a few.  The surprising thing is how the thread that runs though all of that is the issue of mental health.  We have decided to wash our hands of it all and are now paying the price.  The old mental hospitals may not have been perfect.  It was expensive but was we can see clearly know.  So is the alternative.  It is an issue I have some second hand knowledge of which I go into a little deeper in this episode of the Tales of Auburn Creek entitled “The Unwilling Astronaut.
