I grew up in this town, grew up and played with the Knowles
kids. I remember the
gossip that we were all forbidden to talk about, but often when the grownups
were having their cocktails we would sneak up hiding there close enough to overhear
the gossip discussions. Our house was
particularly designed for just such covert operations! Back then it just seemed to be normal. We would slink back without notice. When I
try to explain to my grown children how it was when I was a kid…I wonder if
they could possibly believe the stories I share with them. I think everyone should read this…it was not
gossip…it was real…Wondering if we are heading back to these times.
