BEN AND PATRA

Ben Smith is in town. I called him up after hitting balls at Owl's Creek. I was a bit upset from losing my prized Oakley Golf sunglasses...the pair I bought in Myrtle Beach back in 2002. Those were my favorite sunglasses of all time. I realized I left them on the golf stand at the grass tees of Owl's Creek. I took them off because it was a bit muggy. I remember seeing them...but I don't remember taking them as I left for the office. A presentation on a new digital panorex awaited me. Hopefully I left them at the office. I doubt it. But hey...7 years without losing the glasses? That's pretty good. Right???

Ben and "Heart" stayed at the Wyndham on 57th street. As a circled around the complex I noticed their bus parked. Later I found out there were three busses total: each Wilson sister had a bus...the third was for the rest of the group. Yikes.

We had lunch at No Frills Grill. As I sat, I noticed we will be served by one of my favorite people I've met. Patra. She was the young lady whose father owned a small pizza shop by my office. Edwina and I recognized her a few months ago when we popped into this restaurant. She is really nice...the type of girl who is a humble wanderer. We got to talking. Found out she is moving to Seattle on Jan 27. This she told us after I introduced Ben...a great friend and drummer of Heart. As we conversed as to why move to Seattle, I found it she was Tracie's friend whom I let Anthony meet a her ago. She hung out with Anthony. She was impressed by his intellect. Was even more impressed with Seattle's melancholy vibe. In any case, I do wish her luck. She is a sweet girl.

She gave me her email and #: kpatra23@yahoo.com 757 499-4525
