Follow up on the Brass Ring

[pecunium]

My proposal, (Great Britain on foot, Bridle Path and Barge) is doing well, esp. for just one day's worth of listing.

If I understand what they want, it needs more. I feel guilty (well no, I feel like a beggar, which is different). They want someone who will be read, who can provide something which will have a following. So I'm actually asking for a little more than just a vote.

So if you could follow this link:



and, vote (if you've not already), and leave a comment. Give a suggestion, tell me what you'd like to read about, see pictures of.

When they say, "name your dream", this is one of mine. Toad and his gyspy wagon. The time on the canal.... following the mule. That was what I flashed on. The Wind in the Willows was one of the shaping books of my youth. When I was a kid in Ohio we had a wood behind the house, about four acres. That's a fair chunk of tangled deadfall and mysterious nooks and crannies. It was where I set Badger's House in my mind's eye (there was a patch of fallen branches which was covered in leaves and twigs and snow in the winter. Beneath it was a small bit of dark dryness. The wood-rats Ratty scared off with his brace of pistols and cudgel could have lived in it).

Those are some of the things I would love to catch.

And the morning light, Otter's, "Piper at the Gates of Dawn", which I've always tied into Led Zeppelin's "Stairway to Heaven" (why yes, my mind is a strange clutter of bizarre free association).

I've got the chops to do the trip. Now I need evidence to show there are people who want to share it with me.

Thanks.

No need to feel embarassed.

She informs me that you do take beautiful bird pictures. I'd love to see them.
