Beginner blogger here doesn't know how to backdate a posting. But, Monday was an interesting day, mostly for the people I ran into in the United line at SFO. First, I met a couple from Exeter, UK, who were returning home after a five week vacation. Pete was a retired cop who always wanted to see New York, Denver, and Yosemite. So they did. They completely understood the pull of WW1 and commemorating its soldiers, and wanted to know if other Americans felt as I did. I told them I didn't think so!
On to Jean Lindberg, who was my team mom when I coached volleyball. She and her husband are moving to London, and were on the same flight! Terrific moment of serendipity.
I arrived at Heathrow, took the Heathrow Express train to Paddington Station, met my daughter at the Pride of Paddington, and began my journey back to a time 100 years ago. I was startled by the building along the Thames River, near our apartment, and made this extemporaneous speech.
