Guilty, but redeemed . . .
Austin—a sugar cane field hand
Gus—a nine-year-old yellow Labrador
Jeanette—a small-town school teacher
Chuck—a field hand on a sugar cane plantation in Belle Glade, Florida
What do they have in common? A quest for love

If love's a fish, she must be a pink salmon, swimmin' up a cold water creek—troubled, tryin' somethin' mighty to find her intended.

Before the ORPHAN DREAMER was born, Austin's journey for love had begun.

It's 1967; Austin is a simple American man—hardworking, loving, and faithful. Hands calloused, he works a cutlass in sugar cane fields in Belle Glade Florida. Mind elsewhere, he's lost in a dream world as he desires to discover his life's purpose and find his pink salmon swimmin' up a cold water creek, troubled, tryin' somethin' mighty to find her intended—a metaphor that Austin equates with love.

Unfortunately, a train-wrecked military career and a fatal mistake complicate his quest for love until he stumbles upon the message of a mysterious carpenter.

Austin's world is about to make a 180 degree U-turn. 

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow . . . one snowflake falls from heave to quench hell's thirst. I Am that Snowflake—unique and fragile yet filled with life-giving water. I am Hope. Be inspired to never give up on your dreams.
