Don't Cry Wolf........

Jim and I took a ride to Vernal yesterday to look at a Tent Trailer we saw advertised for sale. It was a long unproductive ride, as when we got there the crazy thing had been built in Texas, and did not have a heater in it.( The lady neglected to tell us that on the phone) Since I nearly froze up Huntington Canyon on our Family Reunion, we knew I needed a heater and didn't want to go thru the hassle of installing one. ANYWAY..... on the way back I mentioned to Jim that I had brought my new book with me that I had been reading and that the author lived in Duchesne.
Those of you that know Clair M. Poulson, know that he is a Duchesne native.
Anyway, in the back of the new book it said that he was helping his son out at his store, A L Foodtown. So Jim proceeds to say. " Let's stop and meet him." HA HA you know me, not on your life would I do something like that. But as we pulled into town, Jim drives into the parking lot and says " I will not leave town without seeing him." So I said " Take my book", and in he went. I thought someone had gobbled him up , as so many people came and went, and still no Jim. Well, let me tell you what an awesome guy Clair is, he was not at work that day, had been in the store earlier and had gone home . So the girl at the desk said ,"Just let me call him. ' He CAME BACK to the store, and autographed my book. Jim told him how much I liked his books, and that his was the only books Kristin would read. He also told him to keep writing. Clair said, " That is what I was doing when they called me." Can you imagine, he stopped writing, to come sign my book!!!
I can't wait to read his new one, now I will be thinking the whole time, " is this where he stopped to come sign my book?" I know, I am nuts. But it made the trip more productive. Although, the best part, was just spending the day with my Sweeti. Thanks Jim , for doing that for me.
