again waiting for next season’s work.

          Carter came back to dinner with us that night, and 

we were all more or less like crazy people. The excitement 

had been too much for us, and I’m sure anyone coming in would 

have said we all had been taking too much to drink.

          An unforgetablesic experience and impossible to 

get onto paper.
