I’m glad you joined me today.  Please Thanks for tuning in this week for Episode 4 of Mr. Wugidgem And The Phoenix Journey. Before we begin, I would like your feedback on a new blog I am considering.  I have been running competitively since high school and college, rested a few years, then resumed running recreationally.  Over the ensuing years, this evolved into occasional competitions.  Then five years ago, I got serious, qualifying for the National Masters 800 and 1500 meters every year since then.  I don’t win, but it’s been a great ride.  I’ve been keeping a daily log and learned a lot about training, injuries and when to rest and when to push.  I am enjoying most of the whole process, but I still get very nervous when I get to the final.  Please email me at allanwchapman@gmail.com if you would like to hear more about this.  Thanks!     

Getting back to our story, last week we journeyed with Golden Poppy on her amazing spiritual adventure.  This week Debby, Michael, and Mr. Wugidgem search for the Mamo Birds among distant relatives of the Phoenix Nation.  Enjoy!

Please be with me again next time when Alika and Kapono come face to face.  If you can’t wait, you may order a print copy of this book at: www.createspace.com/3951665.   Also please email me at allanwchapman@gmail.com to let me know if you are interested in my new running blog and what sort of topics you would like me to cover.  Thanks!

Thanks again for listening!

DIRECT LINK TO EPISODE 4.  I’m Allan Chapman, and thanks for being with me this week.  I am still polishing Mr. Wugidgem And The Faces Of Freedom.  Today I have decided to podcast Episode 4 from my father’s book, Talking To The World From Pan Am’s Clippers, instead of doing Grandma Chapman’s Poetry.  This episode features Pan Am Captain Fatt losing his way on a 1927 flight and from Havana to Miami and crashing.

DIRECT LINK TO EPISODE 16.  WELCOME BACK.  DEBBY AND MICHAEL HAVE ARRIVED AT THEIR DESTINATION AND ARE THROWN INTO TURMOIL.  BUT THEY HAVE MANY OTHER TRIBULATIONS IN THIS FIFTH MR. WUGIDGEM BOOK BEFORE I CAN BEGIN PRODCASTING THIS ADVENTURE.  TODAYS POEM FROM GRANDMA CHAPMAN’S POETRY IS ENTITILED MT. TOM IN AUTUMN.  I THINK THIS CAPTURES THE FALL AND WINTER BEAUTY OF MT. TOM, MASSACHUSSETS.
