About Me
- Carole Richard Thompson
- If you have read the interests I have listed, then you know that I'm lucky to have a busy and satisfying life. It took a while to arrive at this happy state, after all,my fourchildren were all teenagers at one time or another. My husband was a pilot in the Air Force, away from me a lot, and we moved 32 times. Retirement, and moving to the wonderful North Georgia Mountains was like starting all over again in our marriage, in the slower pace of a nice small town of friendly people. The 18 years we've lived here are the longest we've ever lived anywhere, and by far the happiest. My writing classes have helped me discover the joy of expressing my feelings in a new way. The people I've met along this new journey have enriched my life so much. You could say it's like McDonald's, "I'm Lovin' It!"

Hello Carole, Your blog is getting better and more colorful each day. Who knew when we stat there in the bog class that we would have our names up in lights.
I look forward now to seeing your stories and poems and your personal essays about writing, life and what you see from the WINDOW OF YOUR GEORGIA MOUNTAIN HOME.
I was touched when I read that this is the real home
for you after traveling and moving many times with your husband yjr years when he was in the service,
Some of the first poems I wrote were from that same feeling of finding home after being in exile most of my life. The mountains call some of us, I believe. One of my old lines is, "Trees wave. They knew I was coming."
Carole,
Your blog looks great. The photo of you and your husband is very nice. I hope you had a wonderful anniversary.
