Tales from the Backyard

How do you measure a life? One story at a time can be used as a good yardstick; it encompasses great deeds of valor as well as little private moments. Who doesn't like to be heard? Come to dinner and 'listen in' on tales told by guests who have past the mid century mark and are invited, one evening at a time, to savor a memory. The listener is as important as the storyteller because our host for the evening, though never saying a word, is a silent witness to the past.
