Okay, so first of all, Gmail filtered your draft of this piece into my Travel folder, presumably due to the Trip in the title. I find that very amusing. I also just love your musings on this experience. Flow, fever dream, seeing through the fabric of time—all of these concepts are deeply interesting and appealing to me however they’re named and framed. A great tale wonderfully told, Roy...as always.

Thanks Megan! And, after all this one IS a bit of a travelogue - in more ways than one.

“All of humanity’s untapped potential”, hell yes, every time you sit down to tap the keys for another well told tale, Roy! You inspire me. Thank you (from Corfu).

Thanks for that, Gail. And thanks for the probably the only comment this space will ever get from Corfu!

Another brilliantly written piece my friend. Reading your description of you in overalls, shirtless, brought me right back to high school and the shenanigans we all shared. Your gift of the word is very much appreciated.

Thanks much, Betsy! Those were the days! And the nights, too. :)

Son:

Enjoyed the writing, love you, not crazy about the content, in disagreement with the conclusions. But that's just me.
