Merry Christmas Family!

I will write another blog entry on my day providing details of the Boston Book Fair which continues at the HYNES tomorrow.


I appreciate your attention and all the good people who came up to me "thanking me for my service in the U.S.ARMY! It means a lot to me.


Earlier in the day I had my picture taken with SUPERMAN! These fine young folks and CAROLINE BELGE, FREELANCE PHOTOGRAPHER, made for my happiness! Good Millennials! LOL.
