Hello friends and fellow Kerouac fans! Happy New Year to you and yours. Hopefully your holidays were as fun and busy as ours!
It's been busy times around KL. Our very own Lorabell has been busy as a Stew loving bee baking up some delicious Mean Apple Pie. Check it out. Oh, and if you make any our recipes or have any suggestions, let us know! I've also added a new tune or two to the On The Road playlist. Listen along and get inspired.
I also want to take this opportunity to thank you guys for reading along with us and for your awesome participation! It makes us super happy! Stew would love it (we think...)!
Let's go on with it; shall we? Let's see who Sal gets to encounter on the road... It's going to be an interesting, ah, ride...
Exes and Ohs...
LettieLou
Chapter Summary:
Our guy Sal is getting ready to take the "ride of his life" hitching a ride on the back of a flatbed truck driven by two cornfed farmboys. They don't discriminate against who they pick up and so Sal encounters some of the coolest cats west of the Mississippi. He becomes attached to some members of this rag tag group and has a few laughs along the way. Ever hopeful, he has his precious Denver in his sights.
Breaking it down - an excerpt:
Lorabell: of course!
but his interactions with characters are more than fleeting glances here
we get to sit and chill with them for a bit
LettieLou: he loves them
he attaches to them
Lorabell: even if still briefly
LettieLou: like he might actually miss them
Lorabell: yup, he’s sad to see them go
LettieLou: exactly
his descriptions of the characters come to life more here. it's actually nice to not only hear about one or two people.
Lorabell: the story its-self is coming to live here - it's funny
trying to take a leak off the back of a truck...
LettieLou: oh god i know!
and i love how he said he did it "just fine" before
LOL!
Lorabell: and the two drivers with their big smiles
zigzagging all over the road
LettieLou: can't you just see them??
i can feel the wind whizzing around my hair
