At home in Tucson, AZ, since 2005, I live with my partner of over 47 years--and husband of six years--Will Feathers. I grew up in New York City (1947-67), earned my BA from CUNY in 1967 and my PhD in English from Indiana University/ Bloomington in 1974. I served on the full-time faculty of the English Department at Virginia Commonwealth University, Richmond, VA, from 1971 to 2004 (33 years), when I accepted an offer for early retirement. Last year (April 2022), we sold our house and moved into an Independent Living Senior Retirement Community in Tucson, where we have made many new friends.

Kiel Canal, Schleswig-Holstein,

Germany

Waiting to Enter the Canal:
You may recall from an earlier blog entry that because of heavy ship traffic
and mechanical problems at the locks, we had to wait more than
five hours to enter the canal from its western end at the Elbe River
