I think you would have had to know these brothers and maybe even be with them some time in order to write this story. To understand some of the feelings they had, you would have had to really know their character. The deep feelings they had made them end up where they did. Some of this story is written from true events, and other parts are things that I think could have happened. If one little thing had not happened in the life of these two brothers, maybe their life would have turned out differently. Its sad, really, the things that could have been. I know that we will never know now what could have been then if things would have happened slightly different for two young men and their beloved fishing hole.
