One more memorial, a huge "inception thread " in the tapestry of my Rogers Park and my being handed the In One Ear by my dear friend and his daughter, Lesley, when she ran the Cafe that last year.

Good travels to you, Brian, and to the other two who also sewed their patterns in that vibrant and diverse weave.

I'm going to see those colors echoing into my present as I look back along this "magic carpet" journey and continually be thankful that I shared in those times and places with them.
