NOT EVEN IN MIAMI

    Two of Miami's most talented artists retreat to Northern California every year. Just north of Medocino, they love Fort Bragg for its quiet and cool weather. 

     Norma Watkins, Les Cizek, and their cat share this bungalow in the former lumber town.    Norma is a writer, her most recent book being "The Last Resort", an account of her growing up in the racial tumult of Mississippi.

     Les kept South Florida's aviation businesses insured until he switch to his true love, fine woodworking.  

Want a chair like no other?   Les has your number. 



  
Here are two of his small tables  displayed in a Medocino gallery.

 We had a great time trading stories with these two last week.

One of them is Les' amazing Rolex.  He has had it on his wrist for decades and it has never been stolen.  Not even in Miami. 






Until the next tale,
  Glenn & Francesca, 
     on the road in California
