I have always enjoyed the images you evoke of Montana and your experience of living there (and whatever else, of course). But I never thought about them as Poetry as Memoir -- until the presentation from James on Sunday afternoon. For years I have been reading your memoir. Just thinking of it that way makes it more enjoyable. Thank you for keeping us all focused on what's important. Sláinte!
"I wonder if our childhood
memories are the last to go."
love this.
"and that iconic symbol of industrial
greatness (and Superfund legacy)—
The Stack—a giant jutting column
some seven hundred feet high (a middle
finger tribute of poison and money)"

Thanks, Ron. Really sorry I missed out on James' presentation. My old laptop let me down. like the Anaconda smelter, it's history!
