“Here I am on November 18 in Chicago below the Sears Tower. (Willis Tower) The fog was thick on top! I was in Ojai in October for a retreat. I picked up your paper. I love the format and especially like the Secret Diner column. I read the October 1-14 edition with the sushi review. Clever and tasty writing. While there I was able to go to the two thrift stores, Gratitude Vintage and Thrift and 2nd Helpings. Great merchandise and even better staff in both stores! I’d love for the new friends I made there in the Ojai area to see my photo within your publication-even if I’m not technically “on vacation.” Peace!
