Send
me a postcard, drop me a line, stating point of view…..Indicate precisely what
you mean to say….Yours sincerely, wasting away…..Lennon, McCartney, James
My
happy birthday is on Saturday and I will be gloriously 64. On Valentine’s
weekend I started my celebration with an overnight trip to Williamsport,
PA. Back in the lumber days, Williamsport bustled and mansions
proliferated. It’s no longer a happening place, but people are friendly
and the restaurants excellent. At 7 degrees, it was too cold to care
about anything BUT food.
If
you ever hit that lovely little city, visit their Historical Society.
Spirits inhabit old dresses, work with farm and industrial tools and drive the
Model T. The extensive model train collection beats all. I stayed
at the Genetti Hotel, followed a trail of old photos along its halls
and told free fortunes for anyone who crossed my path and wanted
one. I listened to points of view and tried to figure out what they meant
to say. I wasted away and enjoyed every minute of it. I look forward to the last third of my life. Small adventures make big fun. And sometimes they even beat out good old songs.
