Hi, friends! Did everybody have a great Thanksgiving?
I hope you all enjoyed Harold Wadley’s delightful email which I published in my last post. I couldn’t have said any of this nearly as well as he. Through his own words you all can savor the amazing originality as he, Awi Egwa, tells me the most likely virgin source of the aroma sensed in the lariat by Bob Miller. It was necessary “birth medicine” giving the lariat spirit. Never in all these years did I ever even dream of any of these gems that Awi Egwa reels off, transplanting time and geography with an artistry born of the very region I had known only as a young boy, too enraptured and mystified by this to fully understand it even though I lived it all at the time.
Truly a gift of a lifetime!
