Carla and I
Carla Savalli is an editor for the Spokane daily newspaper and an Elvis fan. Carla is one of many people I have done tours with over the years. We kept in touch via email. Through a chance meeting in a department store Carla met Judy Palmer. Carla encouraged Judy to think about writing a book while keeping me posted. At first I was going to help Judy find a publisher. But then I decided that I could do this myself and I made my offer to Judy. Then our activity really increased. Carla and her friend Laura had done a lot of work assembling the photos. Very quickly we have moved from "gosh this is a good idea" to "the book will be released in the Spring."
