Happy Equinox everybody! Hope this finds us all surrounded with what we need and the peace of mind to see it. Vermont is cooling off. Time to bring in the basil and set up a one day pesto factory. I am just back from MN & WI. Elizabeth Watson told a wonderful story of taking young gay men through Walt Whitman’s birthplace home and bringing out the special exhibits for them.

She was told that FUM had a gentlemen’s agreement not to discuss homosexuality. Elizabeth told them she wasn’t a gentleman.

I spent 4 hours at the Chicago airport last night and after much people watching, I’ve decided that almost attractive men are in the majority and too many women are wearing high heels that throw their backs out. That’s the news from Pansy Brook Farm.
