Hey, I ain’t kidding about writing a book. I remember the moment I realized I was going to create my first. I was hiking and all of a sudden I realized I had all the parts of a story that readers would appreciate. Then, and it was years ago, maybe ’88, I turned to my hiking companion and said, hey I’m going to write a book. I got all the pics, I know the subject and where all the little historical nuggets are to weave a decent story together, I’m going to create a book. And he, looking at me with a rather whimsical grin, said yeah sure, how ya going to do that? But a few years later I was at my first book’s release shindig, and other books followed, but the memory of the moment I realized I was going to do all that still is the most precious.
And, seriously, you seem to have a handle on the subject matter, you say you have all the pics, and newspaper clippings, gee the original advertising offering the lots for sale have got to be a hoot. In HOVE their original adds offered membership in the HOVE Yacht Club. As if, eh? Is there anything similar with HPP's origins? Perchance is there anything you might share here?
