my dear friend Michael -- who I've known for more than a half century -- sent me a postcard which our mutual friend David -- who died in 2008 -- sent him from Leipzig in 1984.
here's some of what David wrote:
"I left Alex in Venice a couple of weeks ago enjoying the place like crazy. He shepherded me to Florian's for coffee just before I left, a place I'm happy not to have missed. (Alex was a high priest in some other life -- he has a natural feel for ceremony.)"
reading this moved me. to have these words from a great friend & travel companion after all these years saying something that perceptive means so much to me.
thank you Michael.
& thank you David ....
