Be still my heart. I can hardly read this today. I’m sure it does…go right through Clayton, New Mexico. Buechner and Blase, two of my favorites.

Actually thought of you, Becky, when writing this.

I didn't know anything about Buechner until I read this post. Now I'm doing a bit of a dive and there's a lot to see. Do you have a favorite of his that you've read or a place to start for a newbie like myself?

Now ghosts, I know something about. I'm of the mindset that there is likely a heavenly passage that goes through Clayton, NM as I am sure there is one in Little Rock, AR. I love hearing other people's ghosts stories. Thank you for sharing yours.

Sure, Emily. I'd recommend either Telling Secrets or Now and Then, both slim memoir volumes but bursting at the gutters with goodness.
