Let it Grow


I planted  two seeds this spring. 

The first was the publication of Loon: A Marine Story (here shown at a recent event at the Barnes & Noble Bookstore in Colorado Springs.)

The second was a tomato plant on my balcony overlooking the roof of the Lemoine Ave. Walgreens in Fort Lee, New Jersey.

The fruits of each are the source of enormous pride.

Thank you for visiting.
