That story has a lovely arc, double-helixed with Carl’s voyage as your dad’s “favorite son.” It was interesting to learn of your parents’ divorce through the mention of your stepmother. That made me appreciate the non-linear nature of Memoiry Lane. The final line lands with a zing. I immediately took it to refer to your dad, and then wondered if it was also for Carl and his ability to give your dad love he could accept. I like not knowing.

Thanks so much for listening, Meg. Yes, that last line is up to you!
Wow, I can "see" all this unfolding. Unforgettable. Love story on many levels for sure.
Thank you, Karyn! I love that you can picture it all.
Love this so much MrK
