Though born in St. Joseph, Michigan, a beach town on Lake Michigan, Carol Richmond spent years of winters bouncing between Florida, Louisiana, Texas, and Mississippi. She settled in California and lived forty years on the central coast of California until her husband’s early retirement precipitated the move to a farm, purchased in 2005, on an island in the middle of the Pacific Ocean. Richmond now divides her time between the farm and the Monterey peninsula. The island serves as a creative respite, cooking and baking retreat, and writing solitude; the Mainland madness feeds her joy imbuing children with a love of ballet and theatre. She continues to nurture her first passion, the performing arts, as the director of a business with a sixty-five-year history of excellence. The three children portrayed in this memoir live as far away from her as possible yet are currently all speaking to each other . . . for now.
