Well, she married a musician, whose name is Robert Vancover. They Went to Hawaii on their honeymoon. Russell- I suppose she is happy now, if she can sing at her heart's content.

They captured a lot of wild animals and started an animal show. They are traveling in the west now. ' Corwin- Have you heard about John Edwards? Well, he invented a new kind of burglar alarm to be used on banks. They say it made him a cool million. Frances- Speaking of banks made me think.
