    About this ebook

    In this tongue-in-cheek short story, Doreen Sizemore, an opinionated seventy-one-year-old Kentucky woman, leaves the comfort of her hometown to help cook for a Christian youth camp on an island in Ontario, Canada. Doreen ends up in the middle of yet another murder mystery giving proof to her strongly held belief that "it just don't pay to travel."

      Murder At Slippery Slope Youth Camp

      Some people love to travel . But me? I flat out hate it. The way I look at it, my home town of South Shore, Kentucky is one of the few places left on earth that still makes sense and I ain’t in no hurry to leave it. With all the talk about gun control, I’m thinking that they’ll have a hard time prying guns out of all the good old boys’ hands we got around here. It’s one of the many reasons I only feel safe when my feet are planted smack dab on Kentucky soil.

      It used to be just the Communists we were supposed to fight if they come over here. That was back when life was simple. Now it seems like there’s threats all over the place. These days I’ve started losing track of who I’m supposed to be scared of. There’s ISIS, of course. And North Korea keeps making noise. China is a big worry, too. Then there’s the finger-pointing back and forth between the Democratic Party and the Republican Party and now we got us the Green Party, the Libertarian Party, and the Tea Party. Heard the other day there’s somebody trying to get something started called the Coffee Party.

      Sometimes it seems like everybody in Washington is having themselves a party except us regular folks just trying to make ends meet.

      I can only get two channels on my TV set and they’re a little fuzzy. People at church tell me I should sign up for cable but them two channels I get right now are enough to worry a person to death—especially if you watch the news much. Them news people don’t seem to have a whole lot of good news to tell us about.

      That’s why I like living in Kentucky. We still got a few people who know how to go out in the backyard on Sunday morning, kill a chicken and turn it into dinner before putting their church clothes on. I’m one of them people. I know how to turn a young ground hog into fritters, too, or make venison taste like prime beef. Kentuckians like me know how to survive whether we got a grocery store or not…although I do like me a Moon Pie every now and again. Moon Pies don’t exactly grow on bushes.

      Now, what was I talking about?

      Oh yes, them people in Washington D.C. What a hot mess that place is!
