Bear Creek
Tonight my husband told me that, in my last post, I should've said that Eric Luck was a classmate of mine at BEAR CREEK HIGH SCHOOL (just in case someone from B.C. happens upon this blog). In fact, Eric's wife was also a classmate. She used to share her Love's Fresh Lemon cologne with me in our Man and Society class. Back in the good old days, B.C. was located in Morrison, Colorado, but lines and things have changed, and now it is considered a part of Lakewood. It was out in the sticks when we were students there. Now it is a part of suburbia. Aaahhhh, the details that make our kids' eyes gloss over.
Do I dare say what year we graduated???
Now that we have the Internet, you'll be able to figure it out easily with a few hints:
Roberta Flack's "The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face" hit #1.
The Watergate scandal took place.
The first Rainbow Gathering took place in Colorado - (Prizes to anyone who was there)
M*A*S*H* debuted.
And much, much more...
If you go to Eric's website (ericluck.net), in addition to viewing his photographs, you can learn about his recently published book. If I read fiction, I'm sure I would check out his book, but fiction just doesn't fit into my schedule.

The trees are beginning to lose their summer green and yellow hints of autumn glow in the sunlight - evidence of life force drawing in. I, too, am feeling the need to withdraw a little. It is time to focus on taking care of myself and my friend, J, who is so sick. Also, my Jewish friend and I are still working on understanding each other's feelings and views of life. We struggle sometimes, but our commitment to friendship causes us to hang in there and work through our disagreements. I wish that Israel and the Arab world had a similar commitment so that they would have to figure out a way to honor each other. It's hard, but so worth it.
Goodnight, J. Sweet dreams.
