It was bitter cold on the streets of Denver when 14-year-old Andy stepped off the bus. Confused and scared, he had no way of knowing the haphazard, sometimes chaotic, paths his life would take over the next three decades. He simply knew leaving Texas was his only choice. The next four years with Aunt Margaret and Johnny were a melange of love, hope, loneliness ... mingled with despair when Aunt Margaret's cancer returned. Fitful dreams of his mother's death overwhelmed him and, with his entire life savings of $112 in his pocket, Andy set out again, hoping his old Falcon would hold up to the next chapter of his life. He never imagined the special people he would encounter in the extraordinary life that lay ahead. You may read more about the book including background information at: http: //dearwalt.com"
