She changed my life
As a TV reporter in Dallas and Green Bay, I met hundreds of Big Brothers and Big Sisters. Doing stories with them for more than 10 years, I never met one of them that I didn't like...a lot.
And so it was at the Winter Party of Big Brothers Big Sisters of Rock, Walworth, and Jefferson Counties held during public skating at the Janesville, WI Ice Arena.

The kids they help are nice, too. Some are eloquent…like 12-year-old Erika of Delavan talking about Big Sister Jamie of Fontana.

O boy! I rescue opossum! (click on title below, not on arrows)
Threaten, the opossum plays sick...lips drawn back, teeth bared, and mouth foaming. See for yourself as I rescue old possum.

Mark Twain’s Egyptian Journey and his companion from Janesville, WI
Her ashes are in Janesville's Oak Hill Cemetery.
But 150 years ago, Julia Newell was a young woman writing travel stories for the Janesville Gazette, accompanying Mark Twain to Paris, Italy, Greece, Holy Land and Egypt. The 70 tourists traveled on the side-wheel ocean steamship Quaker City.
My video focuses on Twain, but the relationship between Miss Newell and Twain on this trip is fascinating and is explored in a Wisconsin Academy Review article by Jeffery S. Churchwell, entitled, “The Letters of Julia Newell: Traveling Abroad with Mark Twain.”
Churchwell says Newell was funny like Twain and strong and independent. She was the only woman in the group who climbed the Great Pyramid of Cheops.
