My trip to China for 3 difficult weeks...with that glimpse
of Mao in his anti-Feng-shui Memorial? the crowds of the forbidden in the
Forbidden City? thoughts on the politics of the aesthetics of decor in the
Great Hall of the People? my visit to Confucius' home? that day's ordeal to
reach the top of desecrated sacred Mt Tai? ...
My soon -- in our jet-age -- enduring again, with an
attempted smile, the thoughtless mental state in the Heart of Dixie? the
nervous excitement on "hiking out" on one pontoon for those high wind
moments on my Hobie Wave? the emergency beaching of the boat, in fear, as
lightning struck too near? the great fried crab claws?...
Or the insights and comprehensions of our human story via reading through When China Rules the World, The Idea of
the West, The Adventurer -- The Fate of Adventure in the Western World, Inventing Europe, et al?
