I met Don and Audrey Gould – Donnie and Dee Dee – in 1996, when I fell in love with my own place in the woods and found it hard to go home on Sunday afternoons. They’ve shared their stories, their coffee and cookies, and their chipmunks with me, and taught me that if you can’t find it at Bachmann’s in Central Lake, you probably don’t need it.
I’m honored that they granted me permission to tell their story, both here and in the Elk Rapids News. I brought them copies and they said it was a pretty good read. You can check it out for yourself. Donnie and Dee Dee: A Love Story is posted in the Ourstory archives on Torch Lake Views.
