American Girl


With a little help of my kid, the Girl with the Jet black Hair and a Bow in her Hair, the painting Carol Levin loves so dearly, finds her way to the world. See yesterday's post.
Tony did paint several peace paintings in that dreadful period of the Vietnam war and later once in a while something would get to him and then had to paint about it. Tony was a registered democrat and
cared about nature and the environment. Since he was a keen fisherman, he spend time in the wilderness and remote spaces. He was also a patriot: every time Tony's British friend and musician Dave Betts showed up, they had to recount the Boston Tea party. "We won", was always the conclusion in his typical Mafia way.

Tony and me had some of the best heated rows about the English language you can imagine ! But how can you reason with a man who used to make a cup of tea in a MICROWAVE !!!!!!Never far from my thoughts old pal. QT (David F Betts)
