Susan and I used to live a few minutes driving time apart and our lives were too busy to get together. Now that she lives in Olalla we make special effort to get together and it is great fun each time. She brought me eggs direct from her own chickens now that her home is in the country - Olalla and she is living the buccolic ideal with goats, chickens, gardens and all her family. Susan aka Heidi
When Susan visited the city, we had a beautiful dinner at Cafe Revo just up the street a few blocks. I've been waiting for a chance to sample this restaurant. The food was 
delicious and they managed to make a little butter and olive oil look like a work of art. 
delicious and they managed to make a little butter and olive oil look like a work of art. Then on to Benaroya for some swing jazz music with the Glen Miller orchestra. Yes - that Glen Miller. When Glen Miller went down in the plane all those years ago, his civilian orchestra continued to play. So Susan and I listened to the greatest music of the greatest generation sounding as fabulous as ever. There was a sea of gray heads from that era sitting in the audience. There was a smattering of all ages though and the swing goes on hopefully for many years.

Sounds like a great day! One thing I love is a goat. I wrote part of a novel with a goat as a main character.
I would read any novel you wrote but especially now that I know the main character is a goat.
I am sure glad that you are still here and triumphed over technological disaster.
