221 Vine Street -- yet another full circle

Clare's mother lived in this house from 1992 to 2004 and this place was always our hideout after we graduated. As fate would have it, our friend Jess Marie Walker bought the house and yesterday she had a fire going in the fireplace when Clare and I stopped by. It was wonderful to see the house that feels even more cozy than when Barb had it and is enhanced by the presence of two wonderful children, Eva and Walker, two kitters, a sweet dog and Jess's boyfriend Larry who kept the fire going for us. Eva was the first Montevallo baby born to a member of our Montevallo circle in June of 1992. Walker was born in 1996. Clare and are amazed that the child whose baby shower we attended is so mature, beautiful and intellegent at age 13 and I can say the exact same thing about her little brother who I spend hours with talking about guitars and Nirvana. I am more than impressed with how smart, funny and aware these two former Montevallo babies are at such a young age. I kept having to remind myself that when talking to Walker about the life and times of Kurt Cobain, he was born two years after Kurt died. Color me mind blown!
