I just heard from Naomi/Bea Howell and she thinks this blog is just about us guys:
"It seems to be a guy type blog and you guys are doing a great job. I really don't feel that I have much of interest to contribute."
What I have to say about this is that, so far, it has been a one-sided blog. Sure, Reva has shared a lot of her later life, but my sense is that there is a very large unplumbed territory that needs to be explored here. My question is:
What was it like being a girl growing up in the 1940s and 1950s in Cedar Vale, Kansas? Grade school memories? What were the girls talking about in all those times when the boys weren't present? If we are going to get the complete picture you gals are going to have to supply it. We guys want to finally know what was going on in you girls' heads. You were mostly mysteries to us. So, at age 70 you can let us in on your secrets. We are all adults now. So, come on girls, lift the veil of mystery.
What do you say, guys? What to hear it from the girls perspective? Let them know!

I second the motion! A blog is only as interesting as the people contributing and, as Gary said, there is much more to life than a man's perspective. *Picture is a self-portrait...good shot of my bottom side.
