Uncle Wilfred used to tell the story of how he knew Eleanor Roosevelt. He would approach a group of men and say something to this effect, “See this hand? Shake this hand.”
“What do I want to shake your hand for?” someone asked.
“Because when I helped Eleanor get on her house this morning, this is the hand that patted her &*%$#@.”
The resort had a bridle path, and one of Wilfred’s jobs was to help the lady mount her horse.
