Pat just left my home in Pensacola, FL, on his way to Fort Walton Beach to visit with his brother, who lives there.
We had a great visit, as the others have attested. As I said to Pat, our home is always open to friends, virtual or otherwise.
It's so great putting a human face to an online moniker.
John and Anita,
Thanks for your gracious hospitality! Each of my visits have been different in one way or another, and the thing that stood out in your home was the intelligent and witty conversation around the dinner table! I don't think I have laughed so whole-heartedly in a long time. Your family is made up entirely of quick and clever thinkers! You and Anita are and will always be welcome in my home (but you have to promise that we'll have another one of those great after dinner wit-fests!)

As an aside, John showed me some of his music projects, and I can honestly say that this man has no problem with biting off big projects! But it's his incredible organizational skills that enable him to pull it off! I won't go into the details, but John may be the most organized thinker I've ever met.
There's so much to say about all of these visits, but it will have to wait until later when I post pictures
