What a book. Can anybody else write so vividly about a bunch of geriatrics driving from Boston to Florida.

It is such a compelling and warming story. It made me painfully envious of a time and lifestyle I'll never know. He truly was an exceptionally gifted writer and will be missed.Dultonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17393859263854311723noreply@blogger.com
