Walking with Clowns

I finally got around to making this recording. I had back surgery two weeks ago. My discomfort caused me to procrastinate. It’s been hard focusing on any task. Now that I’m feeling better, I’m back again with my fifth “Reflections and Stories Along the Way” PODCAST. This one is called “Walking with Clowns”, a short story I wrote about ten years ago. It’s in my first memoir “Hiking Out”. It’s about a band of brothers. I just returned from our 41st annual Winter Weekend Snowshoe "Clown" Trip in the White Mountains of New Hampshire. Unfortunately, due to my upcoming back surgery, I had to sit out the snowshoeing and just enjoy the wood stove and camaraderie of 20 friends I haven't seen in a while. Two of our clowns, Jon and George, have passed away since I wrote this story over ten years ago. I dedicate this PODCAST to their memory and to all my "clown" friends who take nothing in life more serious than friendship.
