Photos working again. My command to keep off the road is “no street.” I use “heel” differently than most people, for me it means “cross the street.” Don’t know how that started, butit works, and all four dogs love to race across and down the path. Looking forward to going to medidate Sunday, hope it will bring clarity about things. I am not usually muddled about decisions. If anything, I make them too quickly. So I will slow this one down.

My daughter Emma’s book “90 per cent of the game is half mental” comes out Tuesday and Maria and I will be going to Brooklyn for her book party. On March 26, Em and I will appear together at Red Fox Books in Glens Falls, 7 p.m. I wil be reading from “Rose In A Storm,” a sneak preview. I will also be at the First Annual New York State Book Festival in Albany on April 10.  I remember when she told me that she thought Joe Torre would make a great father, but I told her she was stuck with what she had.
