I know where Mickleton is.  I have friends and acquaintences there --
several, as a matter of fact.  If you live in Mickleton, you probably
know, or know of, Emma Engle.  She's the 90 year old lady who has the
East Greenwich library in her house (on King's Higway), and who goes to
Scotland just about every summer. A wonderful lady!  If you've never met
her, you should sometime.  This lady knows more history and more local
color, probably, than anybody else in the whole world.

I do almost all my shopping in Delaware.  It's closer than most places
in New Jersey.  Both the Christiana Mall and the Concord Mall are in
easy shopping distance, as is that chain of stores down near the
airport, and, of course, the two Borders Book Stores.  Though it's hard
going into them these days.  I used to love to hunker down at a table at
lunch time with a couple of good books to scan (will I buy them?  Will I
not?) and drink a glass of their blackberry guava soda and eat their
spinach quiche.  Both blackberry guava soda and spinach quiche are off
my low fat low sugar diet.

Richman's would be fine; so would a restaurant in Delaware, for that
matter. I know my way around northern Delaware fairly well, and if we
met during the work day, that would almost certainly be easier for you.

Hey, just because you haven't gotten serious about your writing yet
doesn't mean you won't!
