Luke soon came back, lighting candles and setting them around the room the flickering flames causing shadows to dance on the walls.

Luke got up to go in search of candles and the transistor radio.

Jesse nodded. "Well, least we's all inside with a good roof over our heads." It was then that the thunder boomed again, lightning flashed and all the electricity went out.

Thunder boomed again loudly, rain pounding against the windows. "Maybe I better build us an ark..."

"S'what they say..." returned Jesse. "I'll think on it," answered Luke quietly.

"I don't think I could...never tried to make somethin for anyone other than family..."he answered.

Luke looked over at Bo, stil so touched that he had kept the boat all these years and smiled a little. It ws nice to feel loved like that.

"Aw heck that weren't nothin Daisy," he began. Jesse shook his head. "You worked long on it..." "Right...if I had any talent, it wouldna took me so long," said Luke before looking to Bo not knowing what to say,. It wasn't often someone could make him speechless but Bo just had.

"I can't believe you hung ont' that..." said Luke softly. Jesse took the boat from Daisy looking it over. "I always wondered why yo didn't go int' woodworkin...ya had such a talent for it..."

Luke bit his lip, deeply touched. "Wow."

Luke looked at him surprised. "You still have it?!"

Luke leaned his dark curly head against his aunt's shoulder as she held him, rocking him a little. Telling him and Bo would not be easy- in fact she had no idea how to do it.

*sighs getting in the General Lee, starting him up and turning on the radio debating what to do next*

"Now what do you call this thing here?" asked avinia drawing Luke into her lap. "S'a box...for ya to keep all your most favorite things in..." answered Luke. "It's a might small to put you an Bo in..." answered his aunt with a smile.

Lavinia thanked Luke with a hug which he readily returned. "I missed you Auntie" "I missed you too my big boy" said Lavinia softly.

*chuckles*

Aw...can't ya handle a little teasing Bo?

Lavinia looked over and smiled. "Well look at that...what a pretty boat." Luke had followed him out and hugged his aunt handing her a gift he had made- a box made out of popcicle sticks.

*sticks her tongue out at Bo when Jesse wasnt looking*

*bites her lip and puts a hand over Bo's mouth too so as not to take any chances*

"You like it?" asked Luke hopefully.

Luke nodded. "I know. I made it all for you"

Did not!

I made all myself *says proudly* An' look *points to where Bo's name was etched in the side*

Not too sure but... Mr Broom Sutter's Pond Dead Man's Curve
