I just got through re-reading "Blue Highways" by William Least Heat Moon.
It is very well written. I am not a voracious reader, but this book really
speaks to me. Check it out. Let me know what you think.

At some point during most of Dad's visits, he looks at two walls in my
office that are mostly filled with books from floor to ceiling until he
finds the copy of "Blue Highways" that he gave me after he finished it, then
asks if I've read it yet. I tried once but found it very dark and profane.
Maybe I'll try it again...
