Book Signing Bash : Rich Barnett’s “The Discreet Charms of a Bourgeois Beach Town: Rehoboth Beach Stories”

I had the distinct pleasure over the weekend of being in attendance for the book singing party for my friend Rich Barnett. Rich is a highly charismatic, wonderfully witty, gentle giant of a man; he’s one of those people that always seem to have a sparkle in their eye when speaking. His writing, which I highly recommend, reflects his Southern charm and keen sense of humor.

The book signing was a fantastic poolside affair and I was quick with my iPhone to document some of the bash.

Poolside at the event. I forget this charming woman’s name – I think it is Kathy or Katherine. The scarf draped over her shoulders was glorious.
