1. On my mother's side, I am descended from the Canadian explorers Jean Nicolet and Louis Joliet. 2. Janis Joplin once vomited on my feet at a party. 3. During the last five years I've come to truly enjoy living and spending much of my time alone; for the first time in my life. 4. I once sat next to Earl Scruggs on a flight from San Francisco to Denver. He slept the whole way! 5. I was in the first group of technicians trained to do chronic hemodialysis in Seattle in 1963 and am still doing it. 6. Sat next to Neil Sedaka on a flight frome New York to L.A. in the early seventies. He didn't sleep at all. We talked about our teen years, our children and parenting. He was on his way to Oz. 7. Alanww I hear ya about the concertina! I've recently started learning B/C button accordion from scratch at 61, and wish I'd done it a long time ago. It's my new passion in life. 8. I have a sailboat and spend as much time as I can in northern Puget Sound and coastal British Columbia waters. 9. Do lots of canoe camping in Northern Idaho and Inland B.C. with my brother Dave who also is my best friend. Have to pause for thought. (I've been eating peanut butter (crunchy) and honey for years for breakfast..........)
