I got together with my friend and former University of Denver Bookstore co-worker Wally at Spanky's Roadhouse yesterday evening, just a stone's throw from where we used to work. Wally and his wife Linda are doing well, and Wally is currently making furniture in his woodworking shop for his son Peter and Peter's fiancee Holly. Both Peter and Holly, as well as Wally's daughter Lydia and husband Nathan, live in the San Francisco Bay area. I have suggested many times that Wally and Linda drive out there and stay with their kids for a while, explaining to them that fish and visitors stink after 6 months, and will never overstay their welcome. Wally is giving it serious thought, especially since he is making all that furniture for them. Glad I could be of service, guys! And by the way, I took the above photograph of Wally last night standing in front of Driscoll South, home of the DU Bookstore since 1984. Lots of laughs, lots of tears during our time there. If that doesn't call for another beer, what does?
