Pssst. Wanna see a happy guy?

Hi everyone,

Saturday we celebrated Tim Williams’ birthday here. Tim is our son-in-law and no one could wish for a better one. Tim and Robin’s son Kris was there along with his parents Claire and Fred Williams.

The delectable meal was made possible, of course, by none other than Sandy, my gorgeous M.O.W.

Headed home

Hi everyone,

Coming home. No more goo foffing for a while. I’ve had a fine time with Sandy and our family. Now it’s back to work. Enjoyed the signing at Sundog Books yesterday. Not many peeps but I’ll remember one 7-year-old boy who struggled to decide among PIRATES, COWBOYS, and NOW YOU SEE THEM, NOW YOU DON’T. He finally chose PIRATES but assured me that he just couldn’t decide between the other two titles. Imagine my surprise to meet two couples from Republic, Missouri, a community that neighbors Springfield. That was fun.

The cake was good too

Hi everyone,

Sandy says she enjoyed her birthday yesterday. It was a small party but we made it last, ending late with a walk on the beach with flashlights, watching ghost crabs scurry for cover.

Paying it forward

Hi everyone,

I’ve been fighting back trouble for a week. It started when I pulled some bags of mulch from the trunk and leaned down at an awkward angle for the last one. Dumb stunt. Anyway, sitting at my desk chair has been bothersome so I’ve been sitting on a bar stool in the pool room and sometimes standing while I work.

I’m taking three meds and the back is less painful than it was so yesterday I took a manuscript outside and sat at there for a while. When I looked up through the trees, I discovered a couple of clouds taking a quick kiss. I don’t think they knew they were being watched.Sandy came home not long after that. I kissed her for no particular reason.

Happy Anniversary, Sandy

Hi everyone,

I can’t tell you how many years we’ve been married. She won’t even tell me! I can tell you that Mrs. Harrison (sometimes when I’ve been good I get to call her Sandy), and I have been together for a while now. And as it works so often with long-term couples, we agree more and more on just about everything. There are those rare exceptions, of course. When we’ve both been good, life is sweet. At the end of the day or the trip or the road, we’re going to have some mighty fine memories.
Happy anniversary, Sweetheart. I love you.
