Booklovers’ Cafe – Diane Urbani, All My Love
(Airdate: December 6, 2022) Cris invites Diane Urbani de la Paz into the studio to talk about her personal history All My Love, a story of Love and War, set during World War II. This book was inspired by 430 letters written by Don Lusk to his bride Anne. Letters are read on this program by Phil Lusk, Don’s son. History jumps out of a textbook and the love story parallels Diane’s own story of love and the search for places of meaning for the Lusk family. Diane also gives tips on how to successfully write and publish a book on your own.

Community Tides ~ 12/02/22
Nestled handsomely and quietly at the Jefferson County International Airport, the Port Townsend Aero Museum invites curiosity from passers-by to and from the airport proper. Inside, there’s an amazing display of vintage restorations, and always an eager volunteer present to regale you with histories and stories. Not only that, an amazing mentoring program exists for teenagers, who can learn about flight—the mechanics, the skill, and the art of it all. They explore career options by volunteering their time once a week, and in exchange, they will ultimately have the opportunity to take flight training free of charge. With us for a tour is Michael Payne, the Museum’s Director, who also shares his own life journey among the clouds.
