That's the way it is in the real world, small saving favors from local people, unexpected welcome and temporary friendships in international travel, not the wars and rumors of wars that other media feast upon. And days of hitchhiking without real plans, a luxury even at the bottom of the economic spectrum...May your winter days now be merry and bright.

Great story, Phil, no doubt she liked your music and music always saves the day. Glad you made it back to Sebastopol. You are one of our musical treasures.

Ah, what a great story. The unexpected kindness of others! I play the harmonica and I love how you say you were "married to your music." Resonates!
