Boat to Books, Taking a break from America’s Great Loop

Ed and I in the locks, one of over 100 along America’s Great Loop.

If there is a calling one must always answer to, it is the calling of one’s mother… 🙂

Ed and I are taking a temporary break from our Great Loop adventure to be home for Thanksgiving and for the November 21st book launch of “A Pictorial History of Palm City, Florida,” a book created by my mother and me.

To my blog readers, I apologize that I have not written since September 11th. Believe it or not,  I went incognito by choice. Some of my old enemies were after me…

So now, I’m back, and trying to share where I have been and all that I have seen is impossible. All I can say is that I am more than the person I was when I left. There are so many stories to tell; and so many rivers in need. I will be telling these stories…

On a funny note, my husband Ed now has hair longer than mine!

Making sure Ed’s hair is right…

But seriously, I feel that in the past months I feel I have experienced the soul of our country.

And everything, in every place, began along a river.  Water is one thing we all have in common and one thing that every one of us needs.

Well, I am very glad to be home. I will be settling in and writing more soon. I do hope you can join the book launch! 

Invitation, Book Launch, November 21st. Everyone is invited!
