Bradford Stories 01 - Frank's peppers

I'm walking out of the hardware store and the cashier guy helps me carry 4 gallons of white paint to my truck. As we go out, we pass an elderly man, slumped over and shuffling into the store. "Hey Frank!" shouts my helper toward the old man. "Hey Jim, how are ya?." "I'm good, hey how are those peppers comin?" Frank straightens up and says proudly, "Oh they're growin. Should have some soon. I'll bring ya some!" My helper beams back, "Look forward to it Frank!"
