      • Thanks, Tim, for asking. I’m excited to be half way through writing it. It’s more work to research the 1960s big events and get them personalized by the characters. But, the story has to make readers interested, and want to read more. 🎶📚 Christine

      • There was a lot of stuff happening in the 60s and early 70s. Which reminds me that a Brit was saying Black Sabbath was the first Heavy Metal band. I hand to correct her that Steppenwolf was the first Heavy Metal Band. They were the group that coined the term Heavy Metal in Born To Be Wild. The song predates Black Sabbath by two years. Although I love Black Sabbath.

      • My boss went to Woodstock. I assume you did also. You wouldn’t think at the time that you were participating in an event that became a significant piece of history.

      • That’s the fun writing about it in the sequel. I didn’t go to Woodstock. And I’m making up a doozy of a scene where I get into trouble drinking and eating “mj laced brownies.” 😳🤣

  1. I am glad you got some rain, Tim. I think I remember you being in early drought in your area. It is supposed to be an unusually hot and dry summer up here this year, too.

    The rose is very beautiful. On my screen, to my eye, the rose looks lavender colored. What variety is it?

  2. Lovely. I dare say the drumbeat is loud to sheltering greenfly, although this fine bloom does not seem to be afflicted with such.

  3. So gorgeous! Brilliant capture, Tim.
    Okay, going to go work on Charlotte’s gown.
    I need to get up to this beauty’s speed!
    Be back on my break!
