Back again in Saint Petersburg, and quickly reminded that family is not only blood relatives and in-laws. DeAngelo has his twentieth birthday this coming Monday, so I went with him to IHOP to celebrate then to the mall for a birthday present—new shoes and shorts. Kunte called to see how our trip to the east coast went. Ruby called to check on Kathy's health. And Kathy and I had lunch today with Dennis. Last evening our son Alton called from prison in Jasper. There’s nothing like the feel of connectedness to make the world seem solid. There’s nothing like love to make one feel worthwhile.
