The Reformation of Wolfshausen
Teil Neunundsiebzieg
To listen, wait for the interrogator to open his mouth.
Or, you can read alongside Gretchen, Vater Karl and the baby.
I always do enjoy having the story read to me - especially when some of the characters magically change from one to another (Jeremiah to Gretchen)... Tell me how you manage to stop the story at just the best part? And how creative of Gretchen to purchase cheesecloth for diapers. Better than using cattails like the Indians did.

As it should be. Great stories take time to weave.
Can you at least try to have today's post up by lunchtime tomorrow?
Right, Terry. And I've been weaving a lot of threads rather than writing the story, I'm afraid.
Karen, done.

Jeremiah is in the perfect place for his favorite food!
A lot of good lines in this one. Fine episode.
I don't mean to be disagreeable Terry, but Gretchen purchased extra cheesecloth for diapers at the priest's suggestion.
Terry, when I was editing the recording I caught that I said "Gretchen" instead of Jeremiah. But it was all too late already. Good listening.
Thanks, TLP.
Karen, you be disagreeable?
Contradictory is the better word choice. Apologies all around.
