Well, here, as promised, is the first blog entry from “The Long Way Around.”

My father passed away last November 7th and even now I am not really prepared to write prose about him. The emotion flows at times in little rivulets in haiku, in larger streams in some conversations, and in deep rivers when I am alone. So, for the time being, this video will have to suffice. Those who know will understand.

I tried to work it out a little bit in my head, and so I am pleased, even as I am sad, with how the timing on this video worked out with images matching words.
