Once When We Were Young ... Another Tenth Anniversary

________________________________________________________________________________________________

Only people who met
on the south side
of their lives
can share
such an image
with the words
"When we were young"

Ten years ago today
—being November 25, 2012—
Carol Robson 
+
Paul Oliverio
spoke
for the first time

"How did you get my phone number?"
were the first words
she ever said to me
 
Between 
2012 and 2016,
we spoke on the phone
one thousand times
 
She became
a California resident
and my roommate
in August, 2016
 
For better or worse,
we haven't stopped talking

    1. The JOHN JAY HOMESTEAD is located at
      400 Jay Street in Katonah.

      The reasons to visit the JJH are too numerous
      to be listed here.
