this is where it all began
my lifelong love and fascination
with the spy business
in this just-leaked satellite photo from the early 60’s
i was on assignment
and
my cover was
as a seven year old girl
posing casually out front
after a long day spent at the office
i feel quite sure no one suspected.

I didn't have my glasses on.... 
Teachers and writers spy a lot! But in a good way. We listen and try to dig up the truth in each person…😀

I’m glad you chose another profession. Otherwise you wouldn’t be brightening my life on a daily basis, Beth. The world has enough spies, but can always use more life-brighteners.
