These are the real life stories of encounters with travelers as they visit a tourist information center in Cadiz, KY. Situations range from a man losing his wife, to a couple losing their cat, to questions about nude camping! Some stories are funny, while others are sad, as people relate their lives to the author, Wanda Wilferd Lisch. They discuss different countries that they are from, or have visited, and that triggers the author's recollections and impressions of living in Italy and traveling in Europe as an army officer's wife. When people talk about different states and cities, it brings back Wanda's memories of living in Hawaii, taking a cruise to Alaska, and traveling to all the states. Wanda writes about moments in her life and gives the reader a glimpse into the life of her beloved family, both present and deceased.
