a beautiful farewell sunset from a beautiful week. the sea is amazing everytime, as it was in Chicago. Nature always does it own’s thing and man cannot hold a candle to it, altho some clueless places still bulldoze beauty for strip malls and useless roads.(hello rapid city). That is one of the top reasons I am leaving there, senseless commercialization at costs of beauty gone forever.
the movie night with John and new friends that I kinda knew anyway last night was a fine dinner and then Noel Coward’s Brief Encounter. 1945 British movie, black and white, mostly taking place in train stations, lots of outgoing trains and steam/smoke in the frame of the picture. What a perfect evening, what a town can be with friends and family here.
My amazing friend Tim Henderson, who is one of my job/character references and a Vice President at South Dakota School of Mines and Technology,( he was the facility overseer of the radio station) has written that the radio station is taking on a schedule after Christmas and I can do my show again. Which of course I will do as long as I can stay there.
There are ads in the paper today for nurses doing the kind of job I am looking for. That is probably why that sunset looked so great as I took a walk and thought about life. I moved totally to a new life from Chicago to a cattle ranch in South Dakota, thinking it would be like moving to the Ponderosa. It was kinda different, to say the least, but it was the life to have my two wonderful Brooke Melody and Russell and now Grandson Louis, so now I can go on with my life and move here..
The radio music is so great here, Beatles just sang, Please please me. That sends out a hello to my brother Bruce who adores music and the Beatles and manages with love to offer those songs to me when the subject comes up.
