Blast From The Past

I had the strangest call the other day from an old friend.
NOW
When I say "OLD" I mean I have not seen or spoken to this person
since we were 7 years old!

My family lived in Billings, Montana at the time then
moved to Kansas when my parents separated.
Ginny and I never got to say
goodbye and have been in each others thoughts
ever since.

brother Doug. Christmas 1966ish

How my very first and very best friend Ginny managed to
locate me after 3 name changes and 40+ years is an
amazing and wonderful thing.
truly.
