Indeed. Though the people who were the ultimate inspiration
for it (there were many preludes) have turned out to be the
best of neighbors.. and friends. They're a very devout non-
denominational christian family that run an alcohol rehab
retreat more-or-less around the corner from me here. Though
we have deep theological differences, there is always a smile
and an offer of a meal when I go round, and if it's too long
between visits, they come roust me from my nest. Of course,
the father preacher then asks when they'll see me in church
next and I gotta shuffle my boots and say "awww, this Sunday,
I reckon, sir." When I needed a home for one of our horses
they were first to mind. The horse and the 16 yr. old who
rides him have never been happier. They're a blessing to have,
and I'm happy to say I think they feel the same about me.
It can work. :)
