Hysteria

by Miles H. Rost

Pastor Tom was always a bit odd, but people didn’t know what to think when they say a pontoon in the front of the church.

“Oh, it’s just there until I go fishing this weekend.”

For the entire week, the pontoon was the talk of the small town. Some called it sacrilege of the church, some called it economical.

The town manager wanted it gone.

“It’ll be gone by Sunday night, ma’am,” Pastor Tom said, smiling.

Sunday morning, nearly the whole town showed up for service. Pastor Tom walked out and smiled broadly.

“You will all be fishers of men…”

Old Coal Town

by Miles H. Rost

Abandoned buildings.

The smells of dust, must, and nature filled my nose as I looked at the back of the old broken building. It was a great smell, and something I love coming back to.

Coming back to this place, getting away from the big city, it’s incredible.

And being able to restore something old is a great chance to help the people of the town my father destroyed.

His actions killed the coal town aspect of this town, but I am hoping the fortunes I made in tech will allow this town to become great.

Time to give back what they gave me. Love.
