Last weekend in October I drove to Ruston, La, to the Louisiana Tech tailgate party prior to their 'Homecoming game' and to visit two classmates whom I had not seen since we graduated high school in 1965 at Bastrop High. Beverly Leachman Johnson lives in Ruston and met me at Starbucks prior to the tailgate party. We then drove to the campus and walked to the tailgate party to meet another classmate Susan Odom Pincus who lives in Florida.
It was a fun time at the tailgate party and catching up "somewhat" after so many years of not seeing each other. I also met her handsome husband, Howard and her son.

October Book Events Scheduled
Our first of three book events in October will be held in Lake Providence, La, at the Louisiana State Cotton Museum on Friday, Oct. 2nd from 10:00 until Noon. Mama and I will be interviewed live on KWCL Radio out of Oak Grove, La, that morning at 8:05.
That same day we will have another book review/signing at the East Carroll Parish Public Library in Lake Providence from 2:00-3:30 pm. We hope to have some local school children attend one or both of these events in Lake Providence.
Then on Saturday, Oct. 10, we will again be at the Schepis Museum, Columbia, La., from 10:00 - 3 pm during the local Arts Festival. We had a lovely time last year at this event on Main St. there in Columbia where we met some old friends and made some new friends.

Book Events for September
Our first book events for the fall are now scheduled in Bastrop for Sept. 24th at the Snyder Museum from 1-3 pm and at the Morehouse Parish Library on Sat. the 26th from 10:00 until noon. Thank you Ellen for inviting us to the library. It was great fun seeing and talking to you the day I visited. We have so many good memories from our high school days. I can't believe it has been so long since we graduated from BHS! I am looking forward to our book events there in Bastrop.
The Snyder Museum is going to be a wonderful place for another book event, and I have personally invited the Family History Club of Bastrop to come to one of our events that weekend. Thank you also to the ladies at the Bastrop Chamber of Commerce and the Visitors Center in Bastrop for displaying our book at their businesses so people will know about this book written by a local author. Mama is so happy to be back in Bastrop after living in Arkansas many years. I enjoy going back there to visit her and my sister and seeing school friends.
I am now working on October book events and will post them as dates are confirmed.
