We thought we would pass on our usual spring vacation to St George in order for more time for repairs but this sounds encouraging. So glad River Lily and the bookstore survived intact, my faves too. I always spend too much time and money in both but that's what vacations are for in my opinion. I would love to have some of your beloved Lis's cards, they look beautiful! I must have missed the back story on that. Is The Owl up and running? The photo of the bird looks like their porch, so hopefully it is.<br />I got called "Sweetie" by the Walmart cashier today too. It often rubs me the wrong way, especially if by younger people, but she was about my age and just the perfect mix of sweet ole grandma plus in-your-face shiny, flashy jewelry, so yeah, it was fine.<br />I would pay good money to read your novel.

This was almost thirty years ago. I got an agent who said she could sell it but she did not. I will always be sad about that. Not just for me but for Rose, who told me her story and allowed me to write it down. I feel as if I failed her. The little town definitely has a great richness of history and of character. And of place, as well. But Lloyd is a fine place too and I am so grateful to live here beneath its ancient oak trees. Somehow, it is where I have found my home.
