​At the drug store in Ferguson on Saturday mornings, Paul and I got cherry cokes. Mr. Quillman was nice to us and gave us extra squirts of cherry syrup, as long as we didn't take comic books off the rack or spin around on the stools.

​On our drive back home to Washington from Arizona, we were held up for over an hour in the Great Basin region of Nevada. The situation was resolved by a Nevada lineman who efficiently took care of things. He was our hero of the day.​

​One night in 1964, Gene Clark heard Roger McGuinn performing his Beatle-esque folk songs at the Troubadour in LA. He liked what he heard and introduced himself to Roger. They began playing and singing together. David Crosby came in one night and sang with them, putting on a third part harmony. They decided to form a band which became the Byrds.

​Before Katie and I were married, we drove to to John Day Monument in Oregon, in my 1963 F-150 pick-up truck. It was dark when we got there. We slept in the bed and we awoke in the morning to a wonderful display of the painted hills.
