Running with the bulls Drew,
Thanks for sharing this. We are in Lausanne right now at the International Hemingway Conf. Really great stuff.
Just did a piece on Salinger and Hemingway that might run (in part) in the KC Star on Hemingway's birthday. Will keep you posted on that. I was in Pamplona just before the running in 2006 so I'm totally there with you and know the feeling of the city right before the fiesta begins. Have heard some good papers on The Sun Also Rises. Tonight Valerie Hemingway shared some from he memoir Running With the Bulls: My Years With the Hemingways. Her talk brought Papa to life. So many people miss the man. It is too bad when people let the myth overide the truth. He was the kind of guy we would have loved to talk literature and sports and everything with.
Thousands of people gather outside our hotel here everynight there is a world cup game. RTS has a broacast booth and a gigantic screen. The craziest nights were when Switzerland played (the night we arrived) and when Spain played Portugal (the pop of Lausanne is 28 percent S/P and they apparently don't like eachother). It was INTENSE.
Look forward to hearing more about your trip.
Carry the fire,
Brad
Trying to picture all you are describing......We're off to celebrate the 4th in Vermont.....to experience beauty there. I think you'll be adding Spanish to your list of languages. be safe on the camino - will wait eagerly to hear from you again
yes lots of time....will think on´t.
from here I might come up with something that will alienate all the tampa parents, so let´s be careful with that. hahahha.
i know we´ll figure it out with some intensive hours of skip and come back thinking in early august. we´ll set up at table 12 and welcome all hot women to sit with us and tell us how their naked bodies can improve performance on the ACT.
enjoy the Vermont trip.

Hey sonny You sound great. Fully sewn into the fabric of your adventure. Mom came into my office about 10 mins ago with her usual "i havent heard from Andrew and am worrying. when will u worry bob?" (I know u can picture this and will put it in ur next video on moms bday). Get out Claudia I says I says. I'm eating my lunch and then lo and behold there u was on my iPad. So I told her right away.

Going to Vermont this weekend to see the sneedleses
I miss you
Love dadoo
to walk walking with the breath,
seeing with the heart,
in is out and out is in.
listening with joy,
and speaking as a child,
both alight.
moving along the sun,
thinking with the wind,
all is one, and one is all.
good travels my friend.
Great photos. Great drawings. I think the journey you are taking is exciting. I hope you are getting great things from this time you are taking for yourself. Thank you for sharing.

i'm in seignosse, which is the west coast of france, just a bit north of the pyrenees. surf capital of europe. wild coastline, medium infrastructure. obviously gorgeous. glad you like the blog!
drew
teach me to surf someday hey man
good to hear you surfing the waves and loving it, maybe you could teach me someday.
also and besides(?) - the Camino in Spain sounds good, I really hope you'll do it for some reason. maybe because I would love doing it myself, but anyhow - it seems like the right opportunity to catch, a good wave to ride if you will.
