Shirley's Soliloquies

February 5

Eleanor Moomau , my dad’s cousin, born 1909 on this date.

A feisty former nurse and social worker, she took up painting

in her 80’s. Once, when I visited her in Petersburg, West Virginia,

we crashed a wedding reception – cousins in crime. She

carried a cane, more for emphasis than support.

Rain all day. I visualize

a Puddle Party. Anyone for duck hors d’oeuvres?

Dew drop daiquiris?
