I’ve been reading away here and enjoying it as always. The marathon, that’s quite an undertaking. Good luck.I loved the Portable Bohemian and shared it with friends. Still seeing lots of movies..mostly foreign and reading, just finished “Infidel”, whew! Laura’s bookstore has moved to the heart of Decatur, very impressive little store and M & M are doing well. Marlene is what—77 I think. I’m on my way to both stores this afternoon for ordered books. Have to support both, you know but the library figures in as well. Did you like “As the Great World Spins”? I loved it and it seemed like something you might pick up. Glad your health, spirit and writing are as good as ever. PLease DO keep on writing and when you create your”masterpiece”, please make sure I’m on your list.

Take care,
Love,
Connie
