Help me welcome Slim Randles to the blog today with a fun story about Doc and a squirrel and an interesting golf tournament.

Please help me welcome Patrick Canning to the blog as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. I reviewed his book, The Colonel and The Bee last Sunday, and Patrick is here to share a bit about his research for that book. Research is such an important part of writing, and sometimes it is so much fun we almost
