"Are you it?" the woman slurred, wobbling in the doorway of her room, seemingly indifferent to the unsightly appearance of her untethered nightgown. "I've never paid $100 a night for a hotel room that they didn't throw in a man, and I want to know if you're it!"I wasn't, but that morning, it caught me a bit off guard when I was sweeping the porch at the hotel where I was working in Bermuda.I Danced with Princess Grace will open the door to this and other engaging stories through a somewhat picaresque adventure covering travel on majestic ocean liners, an eleven-inch Admiral television with a rabbit-ear antenna, being in the sixth grade with a future president of Harvard, playing Little League baseball in Oklahoma with a coach right out of Bad News Bears, setting sprint-relay records in college that have never been broken, teaching school just after the Massive Resistance era, and much more.Chapter titles include "There's a Cow in My Swimming Pool," "Finding President Flub-a-Dub," and "I Might as Well, I'll Be Dead for a Long Time."If you are a World War II baby boomer, this is the book for you. If not, this is your chance to be part of those years vicariously through stories, all of which (including the title) are true.
