Looking forward to reading your memoir! (I’m a flaming optimist.) I like to think of life as a quilt. Eventually all the pieces come together.

Thank you. I have a vicious optimistic streak myself. I am cautiously optimistic we will sell it soon. My agent still remains positive.

I actually have a memoir proposal being shopped. 9 rejections and counting!

I have 0 influence with anyone who I think could help with that. If you want a Beta reader, I 'm a tough but fair critic.

Mr. Wellman, I again thank you for your service and yeah, you would have made a fantastic mayor.

My late husband and I had the pleasure of playing golf at one of the PC courses in 2010 or thereabouts. That was when he discovered that his hip needed replacing. He couldn’t finish the round. Otherwise the course was great. I had a great time finishing my round.

Serendipitous events litter our lives don’t they Fred. Paths taken, or not, often lead to opportunities one would never dream of or to friends one would never imagine making. “Mr Mayor” just wasn’t in the cards for you then but ever upward and onward, one foot in front of the other. I think you’re just getting started.
