**********

It was probably around this time (APRIL-MAY) in 1986, I.e., 40 years ago, that I was preparing to move from SLC to Southern California.  That's hard to believe.  I've lived in many places in SoCal, but the last  24 have been here in Winnetka.

Although I AM feeling a few "old age effects"  (for example, I feel the cold more now),  I'm in fairly good shape.  I'll soon turn 76.

I'm hurting for my friends:  Eric, David, Teresa, Bill, George
