In the last three or four months, I've discovered who my real friends are. And, as you may expect, I don't have many.  I will spare you the details...

In this very difficult period, I have also touched the very base of my identity and function in this world...I write.

I just sketched out a short booklet (I think it wil be short...one never knows!), BEAVER TALES. This is based on the three years I spent as a ranger and foreman of a wild land fire fighting crew in the Coconino National Forest in northern Arizona.

Writing is my refuge when times are hard...and I'm leaning on that now.

As always, thank you for your continued interest!

Alan
