The sky is falling!




"I saw it with my eyes, and heard it with my (good) ear, and some of it fell on my head!"

Lord! This gave me a start. At first glance, I thought "When did Bobby Fisher play chess on Joanne's back porch and me not know it!" But now I see it's a separate photo.

If you enlarge/click on the snow pictures, you can see the snow falling (the white streaks against the street, and against the deck and the trees on the porch picture). - JR

Bobby Fisher was one of my first heroes (After Dr. Tom Dooley and maybe before Steve McQueen.) Throughout my teen years I had a big white board on my bedroom door where I recorded important quotes, and I recorded Bobby Fisher as saying, "All I want to do ever, is play chess." Cool!
