I'm a semi-retired studio potter.

Gone to a memorial for a wonderful man - who did a lot for the community and passed at 92. Just got back, Tom.

Posted something to start us off!

He's starting out from Georgia, remember one day's ride is about 40 miles, maybe 50 if the going is good and very few breaks are taken. He won't be reaching any deserts for many weeks.

Literary license Tom. I could "Feel the Heat", Lilli. Besides, haven't you ever had a 'Mint Julep"? Maybe old "Sam" had one to many and was experiencing 'Awakening Dreams".

Well, now that you brought it up... What kind of 'Zombie' did you have in mind, Bonnie? Just a 'Little Zombie' or the whole 'Zombie Zoo'??

I suppose I should have given the Prince a name. Ah well. I edited mine just to make it clear that the Prince was replying about the Sugar Dumpling.
