Bob and his wife Susan live in old New Hampshire, where he pastors in and among the scenes that inspired Thornton Wilder to write "Our Town". In addition to his love of books, Bob can often be found in the local cafe, meeting with and observing his friends and their friends, all the while discovering life there is much as it was in the days of Wilder. Except, of course, for the threat to his dearly beloved hobby of reading.
