He was a friend.<br /><br />Also, how do you like Chautauqua? As a college kid, I was a lifeguard there one summer, have only been back once, for an hour, but have wondered what it would be like there as an adult with some years on him.Banjo52https://www.blogger.com/profile/04342397136888422440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328453083715960526.post-70668765440525291272010-01-16T16:56:03.582-05:002010-01-16T16:56:03.582-05:00That was a really beautiful dedication.

I read just about every book you wrote when I was little, and I have a story of how one especially inspired me which I will tell you soon. I was so saddened to hear about Mrs. Flemming's passing as well; all of us students were. I'm hoping the new year finds you well, Katie King.katrina and the kinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09100720724194878261noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3328453083715960526.post-45090899484151485022010-01-02T18:42:36.660-05:002010-01-02T18:42:36.660-05:00I'm with brattcat...aaahhh...sigh.
