Remember This
The clock in the hallway chimes… Ding…Ding… Nothing changes in Sprague except the seasons. And even that is a predictable change. Summer will pass, the days will darken and become colder, the water will freeze in the pasture pond. The sparrows will fly away, the frogs will sleep, the sharp winter wind will blow. Babies will arrive and Ancients will leave but stay with us depending on the kindness of our memories.

Why It's Easier to Feed A Village in Subsaharan Africa…
It was the one thing that brought joy to me throughout 2020. I can't even say which was the best part - the fact that we were helping feed hundreds of people and keeping children in school - or the formation of a new Virtual Village that included: Maasai tribal chiefs and families, kids from the largest slum in Africa, the village of rural Motopi in the Kalahari, and friends across the U.S. of all persuasions! No middleman, no government, no NGO. Just people.

My Week on Seinfeld
I write this memoir because people love Seinfeld. This is my bug’s eye view inside my one week on the show. First. Tragedy struck my life when my very active, much beloved grandmother had a massive stroke. I packed my suitcase and relocated to Laguna Beach to be nearby, when I got a call the same day. I had booked a week on Seinfeld. Something to do with Calvin Klein and Kramer…. I first said no. But my family had me call my agent back. “Are you insane? She (my grandmother) would murder you if she thought you turned down a television show for something as minor as a stroke.” They were right. My grandmother, a Christian Scientist, didn’t believe in illness. To her, none of this is real. It’s true, she would be angry if I didn’t take the offer. And thank God I made the call in time. My week on Seinfeld is one of the highlights in my life — I got away from the crazy people surrounding my grandmother’s stroke and threw myself at the kindness of strangers. I mean Jerry. The star of Seinfeld actually saved my sanity that particular week.
