Karen went back to teaching school and was also a frequent guest on “The Polly and Candy Family Hour” to talk about kids. On the nights Neal was in Reno, she’d usually go out with Evelyn or Peggy Mills, have a few drinks, and talk about men. On the nights Neal was home, she liked to go to bed early.
“I can’t wait any longer,” Neal said. He set the golf club down. “I have to find Graham.”
“You’re hopelessly behind, anyway,” Karen said, and kissed him on the lips.
“What’s going on?” Polly asked.
Karen shrugged.
Neal stalked off. He wound his way through the Red Sea, across the Sinai Desert, and over the Mount of Olives. He just couldn’t wait any longer to ask Graham to be his best man.
