It's number 1 on my bucket list. I remember as a child playing outside and hearing twin engine airplanes fading away in the distance with their engines going in and out of phase with each other, and being mesmerized. But none of my friends seemed to notice. Then several years later I hear: "The drone of flying engines, is a song so wild and blue, it scrambles time and seasons if it gets through to you" Jim in Texas On Thu, Aug 14, 2014 at 10:06 AM, JMDL Digest wrote: > > JMDL Digest Thursday, August 14 2014 Volume 2014 : Number > 1057 > > > > ========== > > TOPICS and authors in this Digest: > -------- > Knowing Joni, or not [Betsy Blue < > betsyblue82@gmail.com>] > > ---------------------------------------------------------------------- > > Date: Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:05:51 -0700 > From: Betsy Blue > Subject: Knowing Joni, or not > > Well said, Sue. > > I take comfort in hearing Joni express the feelings that I cannot express, > which assures me that I am not alone.
