Not much new to report…last I heard TD was not feeling too well, and haven’t seen anything else…good or bad.

Personal news…I will be moving to a place in Florida called The Village in the near future…not to be confused with The Villages, which is nearby. It’s a tall building with lots of old folks…act surprised. I’m sitting here in the dark, so I won’t go into any current reading adventures, but have cut back from three books at a time to one. Retirement screws everything up, but not as bad as the pandemic. Sitting around the house contemplating ain’t exactly my way, but here we are. My cat, Storm, seems content to be house bound, in lieu of traveling backroads across the U.S. between the U.S. Canada snd Mexico. Storm seemed to enjoy the adventures we got into…although she was a bit too curious about a mooing cow, and I had to catch her mid leap. It used to be fun to sort of ease over into Mexico or Canada, but they’ve tightened the borders in more recent history, so you sorta have to stay on the beaten path…sorta. Had a place In California for a year or so, but decided Florida and Pennsylvania suited old Mike better.

Sharon now lives with her daughter in Virginia, so I have to be content with visits a few times a year. She turned 80 and is doing pretty good. Not much new to report…currently reading THE FERGUSON RIFLE for I forget how many times.

Still searching for someone new to read, but always fall back to Louis and E.S. Gardner and his pen names…A.A. Fair is my second favorite after LL.…the detective team of Cool snd Lam. Bertha Cool is the muscle and Donald Lam the brains…and Lam always seems to get beat up.

Anyway… all y’all stay safe, healthy and well read.
