I had mixed feelings about him as a president, but he has been an amazing former president. I come from Baptist stock, but have long left it behind ~ too fond of wine, dancing, and cards! My fingers can never keep up with my mind when it comes to blog posts. I need a clone. Have a great week, my friend!

As for Mr. Carter, his presidency spanned a very busy time in my life. I remember the Energy and Hostage Crises, but was most impressed with his humanistic approach to government and felt, when our country entered difficult times he would see us through them. This is a very good and moving post, Sage, thank you.
