I had the delight of catching up with Fred and Nathalie Mitchell in Post Falls, Idaho, yesterday. Their story “Happy Trails” is featured in chapter 21 of War Bonds.
The group at the reading got a kick out of Nathalie’s Love Lesson: “I get the last word and that’s that!”
That arrangement has worked well for them. They will celebrate their 70th anniversary in November!
