Hi Mimi. Thanks for 'friending' me. Yes, my wife does deserve a medal for staying at my side for 38 years~and perhaps I deserve at least an 'atta boy'. Love your photos of island life. I enjoyed my 32 years living on Catalina Island with the Pacific Ocean only 75 steps from my porch, and a view out my window that never ceased to captivate. Sounds like we both have the sea in our blood?

75 steps???? LOL.... you have to put that in some book! :-))
Being in a customer service industry for decades, I have seen many 50th Anniversaries. They all have a common thread, HUMOR.... :-)) One of my personal favorites was..."After 50 years I get out of the bedroom and she still says 'you are not wearing that, are you?"....LOL

The more I see, the more I am intrigued. You sound like an amazing person. As one who has known hunger, and seen the pangs of death, I can relate to your effort to not sweat the small stuff. My drugs of choice are more beer and coffee, but an occasional glass of wine (with ice) will also do. Nice debut. Are there more in the pipeline?

I enjoyed reading about you Mimi. And I was interested that men are your heroes but you write about [strong] women. I find myself writing about strong men, although I"ve been critisized by some readers of "Helena: An Odyssesy," because they feel I've portrayed most of them them in a negative light. I was very surprised because I didnt see them that way. Do you get similar reactions to your strong women (by men?)

You asked to friend me and asked me why I read so many series. I don't know if there is a specific reason. I tend to discover them by reading a book by an author that seems interesting and if I like and it's part of a series, then I like to follow the series to the end. Mind you, I don't necessarily read one after an other, which tends to mean I've usually got many, many series on the go. Thanks for asking. Bill?
