Home Sighs

This is Manuel and Woody, two charming characters who changed the tone of our trip. We’d just spent a rough couple of weeks in Morro Bay, and I was disheartened by the actions of a longtime reader who had turned into a stalker. The reader, who lives in the Pacific Northwest, followed us to Tucson and then Morro Bay.

I’d considered ending our trip, but Manuel and Woody, and Robert, the mutual friend who introduced us, brought song, laughter, and wonder back to our travels.
