You wrote a nice note for Pam. I like her work, but I don't know her that well. Great hair.What's the weather like where you are? Did you and your dearly beloved ever think of living in warmer environs? Lots of fishing and hunting to be had here. Just mentioning it. Karen

    Hi Karen,
    I follow Pam on FS and enjoy everything she writes. She has a unique writing style.
    We lived in Key West and Charleston S C when I was in the navy. Both places of course were quite warm, and like anywhere, had their own set of issues. When we were in Key West, the apartment had a terrible termite problem. Of course it's a tourist destination, and I guess because of the weather, it attracted a huge gay population, which I didn't especially care for, quite frankly. Charleston was pretty big and getting bigger all the time. There were lots of snakes and fire ants, but some pretty good fishing and hunting. Where we lived, in North Charleston, there was a lot of crime, including murders. I can handle the cold better than the heat, and though it might seem less than ideal for yourself, Wasilla is pretty conservative. Just down the road, where your son lives, it's much more liberal. I guess I'm just comfortable with people who think like me for the most part.
    Have a blessed evening gal.

    One thing Danny likes about Alaska is no roaches and few bugs. Texas is roach central.

    We do have mice in the winter though. I just trapped one that had been eluding me for days. They're here to get out of the cold. Tonight it's in the twenties I think. Chilly even for me, especially with the wind.

    In the twenties? Heaven's to betsy. I couldn't live there. Keep warm. Karen

    I understand gal. I'm honestly not a big fan of the cold either, but at least it's warm inside. I couldn't handle the stifling heat down in Texas, but I'd like to visit it sometime. I dropped in to an airport in Dallas I think once, waiting for a flight, but that's been the extent of my time there.

    October is the perfect month to visit. Just so you know. :-)

A very well written birthday tribute to Pam. I enjoyed the touching words that you emulated in your work. You should give poetry a shot. You have no trouble bringing out your emotions in your words.

    Hello Don and Vicki,
    I've done a few poems. I actually had an idea hit me one night and I had to get up and pen it or I knew I'd lose it. It was about visiting the various folks on Fan Story. I would love to do that, but it probably won't get off the ground. Thanks for the delightful review.
    Have a blessed evening.

    I do the same, I write down my poetic ideas as soon and wherever I get them.

    Hello Dolly,
    thanks so much. I found out from Pam this morning that I was two days early. Oh well, that's OK. It's two more days to celebrate her.
    Have a blessed evening gal.

    Hello Debbie,
    I found out from Pam that I was two days early. I don't know why I had the 17th down, but that's OK. It's two more days to celebrate this fine author and delightful person. I'm sure she'll be pleased with your good wishes.
    Have a blessed evening gal.

Your wealth and kindness to Pam is expansive
I haven't heard or read anything of hers in a long, long time
Has she moved to another site

    Hi Tom,
    as far as I know she's still on here. I don't think she writes a lot of articles, but what she does write is worthy of reading. Thanks so much for the BD wishes for her.
    Blessings,
    Tom

    Hello Patricia,
    I guess I jumped the gun- her birthday isn't until Saturday, so I had to correct the day in my address book. However, she deserves the extra well wishes. Thanks for contributing to her day.
    Blessings,
    Tom

Taking the your time to give something of yourself to a friend (Pam in this case) is something that is worth more than any gift one could by, because you sent it with all the caring emotions you have inside and you asked God to bless her too.

Happy Birthday Pam...I know you realize how much your friends think of you and the blessings they give...I would like to add mine too! Enjoy the day and everyone there after.
Smiles, hugs, and love, Carol

    Hello Carol,
    I heard from Pam that I'm two days early, but I that's OK. I suppose she could get a head start on celebrating her special day. Better to be early than too late I guess. Thanks for the delightful review and the wonderful birthday wishes for our friend.
    Have a blessed day.

    I have friends who celebrate it as their birthday month or week...so you are right on time. It's the awesome thought that counts.
    Smiles, Carol

Tom, I love ya for doing this, but I just want to set the record straight. My birthday is this coming Saturday, October 19th. My son's birthday IS today, however, and I also want to point out that Debi Pick Marquette and I share the exact same birth date. So, she will be surprised when she reads this, lol!

Still, the sentiment is the same, and I thank Tom and everyone I've ALREADY heard from with birthday congratulations. This is a BIG one for me - 70. How did I get here?

You all mean the world to me. Thank you from the bottom of my heart.

Tom, you're the best!

    Hi Pam,
    I'm so sorry I messed up the day. I'll correct it in the book. I'm just glad I didn't overlook it. I have a tendency to do that. You're a special gal, and I'm glad we're friends. One nice thing, this way I beat everyone else in wishing you a birthday.
    Have a blessed day.
    Tom
