[sixth daily dose of Florida Rescue Mission]"},"content":{"rendered":"

We spend a fun few days travelling to Denver, stopping at all-you-can-eats, shooting pool, and playing SuperGhost (the game where you have to add a letter fore or aft without spelling a word after the first three letters).  But when we arrive in Denver, Fred announces she\u2019s going back home rather than travel on with us to Tucson to visit another one of Bob\u2019s Peace Corps friends.  Fortunately, by back home she meant our parents\u2019 place in Pennsylvania \u2013 not back to Michael \u2013 although she did send him a postcard, but I think more because of the dog.<\/p>\n

Fred went home and then to central Virginia to visit a high school girlfriend, sees a guy named Pete walking his<\/span> Cocker Spaniel, asks to greet the dog; ends up marrying him (Pete, not the dog), and the two have lived happily ever after.<\/p>\n

\"Cause<\/a>

Cause for a lifetime romance<\/p><\/div>\n

And . . .  Bob called Carol back in New Jersey, who was glad to learn her sister was okay.  Now, I\u2019m very excited to tell you all the things that happened to me and Bob in Tucson, LA, and San Francisco, among other places, but this Story has gotten too long, and they\u2019ll have to wait for another day.   However, I do have to tell the Portland story, the other Happy Ending – remember, Bob’s still drifting.<\/p>\n

Tomorrow:  You\u2019ve Got the Job!<\/p>\n
