Chapter 1



Thanksgiving Day 2009 is now three days in the past and the month of November is about to draw to a close. No work available today so sign the pad and go home to do those things that need to be done on a Sunday in the Fall on an island in the middle of the Puget Sound; watch the Seahawks play one of the few teams worse than they are, keep posted on the horrific news out of Parkland (10 miles SE) where four police were slain while drinking coffee and working on their laptops, and send out pictures by email to family.

Thank you Mom and Dad for the 1996 Chevy S-10 pickup that you gave us while we visited you during Thanksgiving. We greatly appreciate the vehicle which is exactly like what we had intended to look for next Spring.

It was great to see my sister Pat and her daughter Amy with husband Jeremy and new son Evan.
