It was the year 2002. A local producer came to us asking if we would set up a green screen at a local college to videotape a talented singer. And so it was that we met Dler and his lovely sister, who was there to support her brother in his video, and powder his face to keep the shine off.
On a Valentine’s Day early in our relationship, Mark presented me with a brand-new Swiss Army knife because we both loved hiking, backpacking, and opening bottles of beer and wine. Little did I know how many wild and amazing adventures on which this knife would accompany us. It stayed in my back pocket much of the time while we rambled around the USA and Alaska on our nine-month journey in 1986. I have had MANY embarrassing moments in my life, but one in particular reigns as THE MOST MORTIFYING.

When my father, Joe Mooney, won a movie camera for his sales prowess at Chrysler, back in 1958, it was my mother (aka “Motown Magi” Mooney) who learned how to operate it. She filmed our family visits and other special occasions. She filmed us on our wagons, tricycles and bicycles. She filmed us doing The Twist when The Beatles were all the rage. She filmed weddings, birthdays, funerals. With practice, she got pretty good at capturing the important moments.
