Hi All! Just thought I'd pop by and tell you about a new adventure I have planned. As many of you already know, I have written a memoir based on my experience after my father gave me more than 400 pages of letters he wrote during WWII. Since he gave them to me about five years ago, we have met for breakfast every Wednesday to talk about them and the war and so forth.
Well- One of my computers is down and I have to take it to this guy who repairs them. He lives in a tiny town about 30 miles away. It happens to be the town that my father grew up in, the town where those letters were sent during the war. So I had a brainstorm. I asked Dad if he would want to come with me to drop the computer off and then have breakfast there. He agreed-he never turns down food! So tonight at my son's ballgame I told him I'd like to go by his old house too, so I can see it for myself. So that's what we are going to do. Who knows...maybe we'll knock on the door and get a tour! I am so excited.
As I am editing the book, I am finding that the way I picture (and write) things is not the way they were, so this will be great. I'm taking my camera too.
So anyway- Just wanted to share yet another step in the process.
