The Depths of Winter

By

It has been a hard winter in many parts of the country.

The war goes on, the casuality lists grow.

We are bombarded with the candidates and the upcoming election.

It is time to have a retreat.

Write about your favorite retreat, vacation spot, secret place in the depths of summer.

Let your thoughts take you away and warm you.

Spring will come. Summer will follow. Keep the faith. It even comes to Alaska!
Summer in Alaska.

Read Jerry Wenstrom's review of Loving.

Rhea and Jordan Devereaux had it all: undying devotion, a tender love, and a grand passion. And then the Vietnam War separated them. Follow the course of their love across time and space. Journey with them through the steaming jungle; dance with the Mardi Gras revelers while revolution unseats Louis XVI and protestors on the Washington Mall scream, Hell, NO. We won't Go. Sail with Laffite's pirates into Devil's Isle and rejoice as an unconditional and timeless love emerges victorious.
