Hi Ron,
Last we spoke, you mentioned Edith Wharton. I found these photos from June 2014 of me in one of her lovely gardens at "The Mount", her home in The Berkshires. 

On the ground is a large marble stone inscribed with this poignant quote:

"In spite of illness, in spite even of the archenemy sorrow, one can remain alive long past the usual date of disintegration if one is unafraid of change, insatiable in intellectual curiosity, interested in big things, and happy in small ways."
Edith Wharton

She was a remarkable woman!

Talk soon!
Steve
