Cardboard flaps
Cardboard flaps
It wasn’t that long ago, so it seems, I was free-wheeling it down the road on my huge mo- torcycle with the mufflers doing that Harley-Davidson thing. Bikers would know what I mean. The wind blowing through my hair, hitting the open road with nary a care in the world. At least, that is how I imagined it as I rode my bicycle on FM 949 with card- board flaps pinned on my bike so the wheels’ spokes would hit the flap and make an awesome motorcycle sound. Of course, my hair wasn’t that long back then yet. 02/01/2023 23:00

The den supported the acoustical overtures for Sunday afternoons. Once it was a double-car garage. Now it is a sprawling carpeted room with bookshelves, cabinets full of vinyl records, glass-doored cabinets with China and Crystal, a television, Dad’s rocking chair, Mama’s sewing table, a 1911 upright piano, and a small prairie of open floor space. 02/01/2023 23:00
