Letters from America

Sunday 21 October 2018

I have been busy down in the country building (as always) and exploring.  This is a snap taken down by the creek near my place.  It was a lovely spring day and I wore my luminous pink gumboots to protect me from the swamp and any snakes.  I don’t know if any of you have read Slaughterhouse-Five – or have seen the old movie – but the hero of the story makes a striking entrance emerging from an underground shelter after the bombing of Dresden in virtual rags and an incongruous pair of silver boots (scavenged from somewhere).  My glow in the dark pink gumboots always make me think of that scene – they are so dazzling.
