Elliott Ryder admittedly was one of those people who got impressed easily. People generally did that for him. Things they did, acted, so forth. The town of Jordan used to be an exception to his ‘I am impressed’ rule. They really were the hick town of the Beginnings provinces. They didn’t want to attend many meetings. They wanted to sip moonshine with Henry when he came for his liaison trips. They shut down early, didn’t want to partake in Danny Dollars. They had zero technology. Maybe that was the reason when the ‘Texas Town’ craft store opened, Elliott was shocked.

They were actually going to make money? During his few hours break from the new monitoring system, he stopped in, previewing the store before the official opening, and the store proprietor told him it was only so they could buy things in Bowman.

They had a meeting, all the craftsman, and decided why not share their talents.

If the cost for which they set was any indication, they could put Unique Boutique out of business. The craftsmanship alone was amazing. Of course, the items they sold weren’t geared toward the feminine population.

Elliott wanted to make a purchase, he really did. And even found the perfect item. An incredible recorder/flute. Whittled and smooth, the notes perfect. But Garret, the shop owner wouldn’t let him pay. Telling Elliott, “Anyone who can love an item that much and make it work immediately like you, deserves to have it.”

Elliott thanked him for the gift and asked what he could do in return.

“Use it,” Garrett told him.

“I will. This is beautifully crafted.”

“Well, I think Bob wanted to do something to overshadow the item he’s got going on sale in the Fancy Boy’s shop.”

“Unique Boutique.”

“Yes.”

“Which item?” Elliott asked.

“Vibrator.”

Elliott nearly choked. “The same man who made this recorder remade the vibrator?”

“Has a thing about phallic shapes.”

Elliott laughed. “Who is your best talent, I’m curious.

Garrett rubbed his chin. “Have to say Bryce Simpson.”

“Any of his work in here?”

“Nah,” Garret shook his head. “Too big and he takes a while to complete a project. But, holy moly what a talent. You would drop over.”

“Really.”

“Really, his current one is a gift to Joe Slagel and the people of Beginnings. He’s almost done. Estimates another month. You should see it.”

Elliott had to admit his curiosity was piqued. “What is it?”

“Can’t tell. You have to see it. And, I have to close up. It’s a long walk and I don’t want to walk while it’s dark.”

“You’re walking?” Elliott asked.

“My horse wasn’t feeling well.”

“Then why don’t you let me drive you. It’s the least I can do for this recorder.” He held it up.

“You know what? I’ll take that. My corns have been bothering me. Maybe we can convince Bryce to show you what he got.”

“And that will make the trip all the better,” Elliott said.

When he spoke those words, Elliott didn’t know if he truly believed them, but was head over heels glad that he took Garrett home.

Bryce unveiled what he had and Elliott nearly passed out.
