      Oh the memories of our days working at Britannica in the 1980s. I often wonder about the people we worked with there. From the deaf receptionist to the lunch-bag thief, it was quite the group.

        Thanks! Getting off the plane and walking outside was a shocker for her, it was about 52 degrees warmer that her home in Michigan.

        Yes, we went for a bike ride when we got to my home. It was like a different world to her! The three hour time difference really kicked her bum too. 😂

    Do you remember the old stamp pads. The clock tower the handle and the bottom the stamp where the handle pushes down on the pad. Ok overactive imagination lol
