Ran into old Bruce Bell this morning at the Frothy Cup. Haven't seen him since his heart attack a couple of weeks ago. He told me he had symptoms months ago but didn't think they were serious. He said his heart attack was extremely painful with shooting pain from his stomach through his arms and into his chest.
He showed me pics of his trip this summer to Ecuador his granddaughter put together in a scrap book. He showed me other pics of his family especially his late wife, Chee Chee. There's a pic of Bruce giving his comatosed wife one last kiss before her life support was disconnected. Very sad indeed.
I met a tourist, Tony Silvester and his wife, Angel, from New York. Tony spoke with a heavy New York accent and when I told him his mannerisms reminded me of Robert De Niro he hugged me. De Niro is his favorite actor. When he found out I was planning on hiking to the Atlantic he told me to let him know when I get to the area so we can visit. I run into people from all over the world at the Frothy Cup Coffee Shop.
I got back a few minutes ago from Golden, CO about 20 miles east down the hill. Beautiful town.
