I relate to the tall thing - using my height to my advantage in the various music directing and directing directing things I've done. The pic of you here is SO Richard. This reminds me of when we met. I had such an intellectual crush on you - I was so delighted that you noticed me and talked with me and befriended me. Maybe you are my Richard as Richard Greenberg was your Richard. I'll never forget the days of 'bonesing' we did that summer, and how you were there the day I dug deep enough that the magma spewed forth onto the page. It was all three-legged stools with you and me, and Mrs Ramsay will always keep a watchful eye on us both. I love you, my friend, and I am sorry for this loss of yours.
That summer bonesing with you changed my whole perspective on writing. It would take me a while, I think, before I felt confident enough to use what we learned back then, but it definitely started us off - both I think. "It was all three-legged stools with you and me, and Mrs Ramsay will always keep a watchful eye on us both." is a perfect sentence! Anne Shirley in Anne of Green Gables is always on the lookout for "likeminded-people" and treasures them when she finds them. (By the way, read that if you haven't!) I am the same. I love you, too, my dear likeminded friend. One of the pictures I took up in Newfoundland was of a beaver lodge. No accident :)

And I’m sure you said “what a lovely dam!”
