Luckily, he is forgiving of pretty ladies. :-)<br /><br />I am toying with putting McCord and young Mark Twain in Los Angeles, too, when both were 250 people or so.<br /><br />I am somewhat of a small town fellow myself, staying out of frenetic crowds!<br /><br />Your words helped me heal. I have to deal all weekend with a surly, mean spirited, cruel lab tech all weekend. Life is always something, isn't it? I am glad your suicide aftermath cause did so well. Roland D.

I had no idea it grew so fast during the Gold Rush. (I lived in the SF Bay for 19 years. I tended to avoid SF, because I don't like the frenetic energy). But viewing the Chinese New Year's Parade is amazing. <br /><br />You know I'm always a fan - I hope. Right now, I'm appreciating how you blend non-fiction and fiction so creatively, and in such a way that it doesn't matter what's accurate or not. It's all engaging story.<br /><br />Take care, Roland.Rawknrobyn.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15997241410192066577noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8681132888977525688.post-40055804982568245992014-09-29T13:19:58.279-05:002014-09-29T13:19:58.279-05:00D.G.:
