How Sad a Passage

COUNTESS "This young gentlewoman had a father,--O, that 'had'! how sad a passage 'tis!--whose skill was almost as great as his honesty; had it stretched so far, would have made nature immortal, and death should have play for lack of work." -Act I scene i, All's Well that Ends Well.

Orion, and other poems

The prospecting reference pops up again, and so the $3 DVD is purchased from the antique shop as part of the “eclectic” postcard and horseshoe mix.  I fully intend to steal some quotes for the story I will write on the return.  I have begun to stockpile the first of the wine bottles for quarantine as well, Diablo and Blue Moose.  Managed 10 dry days, but this political reunion in the city of birth is too much.  Yendys is such a fabulous name for a street, Anthony Daniel for the confirmation win.  Father of Canadian poetry book with Miriam poem, the Mazda 3, the time past since the last two memorable treks here...  hard not to aim for Chéticamp via the Englishtown ferry tomorrow.  Moncton into the “orange zone” as you prep for another transatlantic.  My oh my.  This magic box is going down silky smooth, smart to leave the remaining bottles in the car.  What will tonight bring?  A letter from our man of the Domus?  Stay tuned.  If the frog pond is open tomorrow, I’ll update from there.
