Transcription: **Left Page:**
ago and will again â€” I
Don't know anyone else
in my life with whom
I so much enjoy the
art of conversation.
I'd have to think harder
about why this is.
But it is.
And then a drive through
the beautiful countryside
and dinner with Jane.
Lovely day.
Home by 9:15 and
watching a PBS special
on the 50 year anniversary
of Sgt. Pepper.

June 4, 2017.
Last day in Lincoln.
Need to go by 4th St.
Those
few days in an anonymous
Best Western motel room
have been bliss... devoid
of the past, simple furniture,
devoid of clutter and
cat hair. The air is
cool and feels cleanâ€”
almost like mountain
air. There've been no
big disruptions from neighbor-
ing rooms, thank God.
Just quiet. Listening.
Deep sleep. Hot showers.
And beautiful conversations
with friends.
