I retiired a year ago and the time has flown! I've been busier than ever with the purchase of a new home and car. At 68 years of age I hope I'm not only older but a little bit wiser. I am looking forward to re-engaging with my writing and to reading others' contributions, here. P.S. The cover photo is from a trip in my 59th year with my youngest son: poolside at the Ohla Hotel in Barcelona, Spain - Halloween: 2016
