About this ebook
Gary Fiscus
A child of the fifties and sixties, Gary’s parents took the family to Florida nearly every school break or Christmas vacation. Seldom did they ever stay over one night in the same motel or town. There was just too much to see, and a near tropical weather was much more pleasant than the frozen tundra of Indiana. In his college freshman year, Gary traveled with the all-student band USA on a thirty-day concert tour of seven European countries. In the early 1970s, he spent three weeks on Cat Island, the outermost of seven hundred Bahamian Islands. There, he and another preacher did mission work in that remote (nonresort) area. The Fiscuses have crisscrossed the United States from Miami to California on various vacations and/or preaching appointments: parasailing in Cancun, Mexico; zip-lining in Ketchikan, Alaska; and the last few years, Gary and Jane have cruised both the East and West Caribbean, as well as their most recent sailing to and through the Panama Canal. Gary’s reading of the The Bully Pulpit piqued an interest in that canal’s engineering feat. The last few voyages have given the author more time to reflect on days gone by as well as current journeys. We hope you will relate to some of these Gary Fiscus’s memories via his poetry.
