Wow, what a journey this already is and feels like it is going to be. Let me explain. Just a few short days ago (Tues., Feb. 24, 2009) I was sitting in one of my favorite spots in Fallbrook, a coffee house called Cafee Primo. It was mid-morning, the place was hoping with people---I don't know why the place was so busy on that day---in spite of that I was lost in my own thoughts---dwelling on some composition strategies I had just learned, when, upon looking up from my book, I saw Sam---a newly made friend I had made recently in this town that I just moved to a little over three months ago. We shot the breeze for a while and while chatting, he mentioned the Veteran's Resource Center. Being a veteran I asked what the Center was all about. He said that the center was right across the street, that if I wanted to come and visit the place, he would call Albert--the person responsible for its appearance here in Fallbrook. He got Albert on the phone and handed the phone to me---I liked what he explained to me over the phone and so I made an appointment to meet up with him the next day, at which time he would explain what was going on---and if I liked what I heard and wanted to become a part of it, I could arrange to do so immediately.
