Loved reading it, I need to figure out what farm boots are, a fray face and that dog with the orange hair makes it real. Thanks for sharing it.

Thank you!! Rubber barn boots are ubiquitous here - fashionable versions at the mall, plain black at the farm stores. In grad school, my last name started with B-e-n and I was called Ben-Butt since first grade. In the story, Kristy was fumbling for a name to call Ethan Frasier. Frasier Face, Fray Face.... Lame, I know! ... but in my rural childhood, we were lame. My grandma shocked us by saying in HER day, they'd tease a kid named Meyer: "Meyer, Meyer, sht in the fire; the fire's too hot, so sht in the pot." Grandma!!!

Thanks for explaining. I think the farmer boots made out of rubber we call in Dutch water boots.

Great grandma you head LOL
