If you had the power to change one law, what would it be and why?

To start. That’s like being granted one wish.

Write about your dream home.

When I was a young child, my parents rented a an old cabin on a lake for a few days. It was a dream time. We all basked in the sun, fishing, picnicking, and playing on the beach. Most wondrous of all, the whole family slept in beds on the screened-in front porch with a view of the reflection of the full moon on the lake.

You get some great, amazingly fantastic news. What’s the first thing you do?

I’d have to digest it a minute, discuss it with Bud, and then share it with my nearest and dearest. Aha! While I was writing this I got good news! The guy who is to paint the interior of my house just called to come by! I’ve been waiting a while!

Frosty got regular workouts after that.

I don’t need a b

Describe your most ideal day from beginning to end.

How do significant life events or the passage of time influence your perspective on life?

As time passes life becomes more about the every day and less about holidays and special events.

Something on your “to-do list” that never gets done.

My to do list is significant. Though I continually stay busy with my endless list of projects, I never complete it. In fact, I expect to have a list when I enter the Pearly Gates.
