What a beautiful story, @johnjgeddes! Very poetic everything: language, landscape and history! I think I would die if I found my favorite writer in the middle of a trip. Sometimes having intelligent conversations with people, of important subjects, is a good way to get to know each other. Especially if you talk about poetry is like connecting on another level with people! I like the way they are, how he protects them from the storm, how they connect on a literary level! A true love story of literature. I already missed your stories. A hug and a nice Sunday!
