Mine is clouds
---------------------
It was a great day at Michigan
Kev's! It was warm, around 80 degrees, but we enjoyed a nice
breeze coming from the south.
I "saw" this
picture while sitting at the picnic table next to the yurt, reading You
Can't Catch Death by Ianthe Brautigan. Ianthe is Richard
Brautigan's daughter. The book offers a glimpse of Richard
Brautigan's life and his daughter's attempts to come to grips with
her father's suicide. As a wild-eyed Brautigan fan, I found
the book sensitive and interesting.
I also have two other
Richard Brautigan works, published posthumously. I haven't
read them yet. I plan to stretch them out as long as I
can. Richard isn't writing anymore.
