I want to tell you all about the Burro Lady, Caveman, and the Tormenter Guy. And I will, because there are great stories here, and you need to know them. But these are my new neighbors, and I'll be neighborly and respectful as I do so. If I make a mistake in portraying life here, I'll try to correct it. Oh, yes, and that's the burro lady's burro. More on her some other day.
One of my favorite writers, Martha Gelhorn, wrote a book about traveling by train through China with her husband, Ernest Hemingway, whom she referred to only as UC or Unwilling Companion. To prevent angering the Boo Radleys of the world, and to protect the privacy of friends and neighbors, I'll probably not use real names, either.
