Have you ever lived in a small town? Worked in a small school or church? Maybe a drive-in? Life moves at a slow pace in the small Texas town of Eastlake, as portrayed in this collection of short stories spanning six decades. For most folks, the school calendar drives the social calendar and on Friday nights, everyone turns out to support their hometown Eagles, but from 1957 to the present, Sully's Drive-In has always been the town's true center. Cole Bradford comes to Eastlake as a young, single coach and returns later as the embattled principal of the intermediate school. Ron Copeland is the veteran administrator who has spent more than half his life as the principal of Eastlake High School until he encounters a new superintendent with whom he immediately finds conflict. Evan Peters is the football coach and later Athletic Director with character issues aplenty. Cora, his wife, has her own set of problems and nowhere to turn for help. Christopher Manning is the pastor at the First Baptist Church, although we first meet him in the role of youth minister. Amy Davis, Brent Griffen, Ty Mills, and the Holder family also live and work in the community. Come to Eastlake and spend some time enjoying the quiet life and getting to know the locals!
