“The day beckons. She runs among the trees. Beneath a sheltering canopy of branches. Hidden in the radiant green, a man waits. In hate-blinded hands, darkness waits.”

Ever stylish, Florence waits in front of our new house in Deerfield, for a lady friend to transport her to a Human Rights lunch. She and I handled the PR for Deerfield’s Citizens for Human Rights in the 1959 fight to permit African-Americans to buy houses in Deerfield.

When Dan realized that Florence could no longer walk, he insisted on buying us two runs of stair lifts. Here he proudly oversees Florence’s first solo on the contrivance. Four months after Florence died, the 56 year old seemingly healthy Dan died at his home of a brain aneurism.

This is Valerie's world in miniature. She makes it what she wants it to be...without war, racial hate or misunderstanding. Ken and Barbie (dolls) are man and woman rather than Mom and Dad. They enjoy living and having a camper truck is the good life. Today Valerie has the chicken pox and can't go out and play.
