Baby, It's You

Cilla (short for Priscilla) was married to Bobby Willis for decades, making her legally Priscilla Willis I suppose. Has a nice ring to it. I wonder if Cilla and I are somehow in-laws?

Postcard - Lake Willoughby, Vermont

"Aerial view of Lake Willoughby, which lies between two mountains and is often described as similar to a Swiss Lake. It is nearly 5 miles long, providing good water sports and fishing. It is in the town of Westmore, north of Lyndonville, Vt. on Vt. 5A."

1970s. When I was growing up here in Washington State, we never saw submarine sandwiches. When I lived in Vermont for awhile in 1979 I met my first "grinder" at Lake Willoughby and became hooked.
