Hi Joel, This smooch if for your two parrots... but I want to know, do they sometimes steal a smoke on the sly? I wanted to send you a calendar of SPB yesterday, but the post office had no envelopes at all (typical situation here!) so instead as a token of appreciation I'm sending along a point for your feathered friends. The Renaissance Poets, Milton, and A River Runs Through It are excellent books for summer reading. We are leaving on the sleeper train tomorrow night which will transport us to a magical pastoral setting on the Volga far from the pollution, noise, and dust of SPB. There I will be found under my favorite apple tree reading poetry and prose... while my industrious Russian wife digs the garden. Life is good! | |
