Eleanor's Greatest Hits

Fourteen years ago, we caught the last ferry from Whidbey Island and rushed to the hospital on the mainland. Eight hours later I watched as my daughter Eleanor was born. My formerly fabulous gay life hasn’t been the same since. 

The character "Eleanor" already has a starring role in these blog essays. Happy birthday to the marvelous and very real young woman. 

Love, Papa
