Dear Lather, I hope you are printing out these posts about Helen, and saving them. I was just reading some posts Chris wrote about Ben in an APA he used to belong to, and it brought it all back, so clearly. And she will love them, too.

Ammo has no memory of these places at all in terms of history. The other day he said he would like a secret room, "like that guy in Salem." ????? We finally figured out he meant Nathaniel Hawthorne's bedroom. He had no memory of the literary facts, but he remembered the house in far greater detail than I did, even described a picture that he liked on a wall of an elephant that drank beer. They will look at the ant carrying a crumb while you are looking out at endless vistas in the distance. It's sometimes hard to adjust, but it is a great gift if you can. Youth is happy because it has the ability to see beauty. Anyone who keeps the ability to see beauty never grows old. Kafka
