Comment on On Foot: Brooklyn. Walk to Bensonhurst. by Beth

Glad you like it. Spellcheck, on the other hand, certainly did not. I got the angry red squiggles. But I checked and the word is legit. Spelled correctly, too.

Silence between people was what I was referring to. Though occasionally when I’m alone I wonder if the ghosts are angry with me.

2 things:
First of all, “experientially” …… awesome.
Second: When you write about silence conjuring feelings of fear, do you only mean a silence between you and another person, or silence in general (like if you are alone)?

Lovely post, really enjoyed reading this. You have such a great way of making the reader feel so present with you. Thanks!

Langhorne Slim - just came across him as I made a mix for Rick. Love the song "Say Yes" but it's only available in Europe right now, so I couldn't add it.

Mom, is that you in the last comment? Just guessing from the rock comment.

Love you Beth!
Kerry

Wonderful you sound just fine. I have many things that I would not part with because of their wonderful connection to this life I have led. And at my age I truely do need reminders. But as for everyday things, I have been paring down for years – and that is satisfying. Don’t forget my rock!

it sleeps two. Me plus one very lucky soul. I would have serious ecological misgivings about taking this smog machine on such a long road trip. Not to mention financial and security misgivigs as well....

He's a tough guy I think he can handle it. BTW 30s are the new teens.

> Skateparks are on the list of possible stops.

Beth is travelling with a teenage boy! It would've behooved this fellow "Jack" to've met with the family (though perhaps I missed out), otherwise I'm thinking a tiny bit of horsin' around at his expense may ensue.
