  Reading allows the luxury of friendship with persons you may never otherwise meet, not least of all because they lived out their lifespan before you were born.

  As my previous poll showed, quite a few readers miss the Keel Boats. Today’s post shows a nice clear image (albeit undated) of The Gullywhumper.
