I was married to a controller and hung around despite the mismatch to be the best Dad I could be for my daughter until she grew up. So it had purpose.

Been alone for 10 years, divorced in my 60's and my plan for many friends to visit this spectacular location in the foothills was 100% bogus.

My new friends are now all 50 miles away, in real cities, and even they don't visit. Two did in 10 years. Old people really are throwaways in society. I may move from this photographer's paradise, give or take the uncertainty these days.

Good luck. At least, a cup of coffee with a friend is not a 50 mile drive.

It's hard to convey everything in writing, so correct me if I'm wrong. It sounds as though the girlfriend pushed the WDLAL Mar 4 #15
