I'd be doing well to list some stuff out, but then I'd have to look at it and realize it is there much as I'd like to imagine it's not. Vancouver sounds like a good time. Isn't it funny how with this blog I just move with you. Yeah! I want to see Vancouver, do it! <em>Les Says: See, I was thinking exactly that... I can get away from the people I don't want to be bothered with, and stay just as close to the ones I care for. Granted, it'd be down to phone calls with my Mom and Ruby, but, like I say - it's only for a year. Maybe. :-D </em> Well betch, at least you have a list of what’s sitting in front of you.

I'm also writing fiction and have a few letters my Dad wrote my Mom during the war (nothing worth blogging about though). I'll be interested to see what you have to say about your Mom's letters. <em>Les Says: Wow! How cool is THAT?! :-D "Becker" would have been my married name, had I married the guy... instead I took my daughter's for my own. Thankfully. Ahem...* I'm going to post my Dad's letters here on the blog. I have a couple of WWII buffs that may find them interesting - not sure if it'll be a weekly or not, but I do need blog fodder while I try to whittle out time for the "real" writing. Found your blog through Entrecard, BTW - and I'm glad you clicked back, Patricia. It's always interesting to find people with something in common with me. Hope to see you here or at your space more often...</em> Hey, Les,

“Becker” would have been my married name, had I married the guy… instead I took my daughter’s for my own. Thankfully. Ahem…*

I’m going to post my Dad’s letters here on the blog. I have a couple of WWII buffs that may find them interesting – not sure if it’ll be a weekly or not, but I do need blog fodder while I try to whittle out time for the “real” writing.

Found your blog through Entrecard, BTW – and I’m glad you clicked back, Patricia. It’s always interesting to find people with something in common with me. Hope to see you here or at your space more often…
