One of the more relaxing days in the past 10 yrs I spent with a Brevard rock hound guy who ran his El Camino with the corvette engine so hard on Airport Rd that the troopers drug him home to momma where they knew he’d be safe as mom worked for the state patrol. That event occurred some decades ago. And the motor reportedly blew up.

BTW: there’s the most astonishing hike outside of Burnsville—- you make a right at that Ingles then the next left—- you can’t miss it—— wherein you come upon a stream and a cascade of silver, black & purple mica which dazzles the eyes like the Milky Way (how do u get that trademark symbol in there) does on a very dark night far from the city lights.

Sorry—- it amused me to try & simulate yr stream of consciousness.

I know very well how to get to that mica mine. Join me sometime. I need to haul in more glittery things…

Oh, and did I tell you about Crystal River in Bloomington IN where you hike in yr River shoes (trademark) and pop potato sized rocks to reveal quartz geodes?

Been meaning to get back there. And at IU there’s multiple recitals every day—- playing real good for free.
