forty-three; Peter, Mongoose, Mountain Bike
He left New York in the Navy, but kept it in his handshake.
He hopped from Georgia to Japan, from San Diego to Tahoe, from the Yankees to the A’s, from an intro Anthropology class at community college to molecular biology Berkeley.
He is the kind of man who earned his beard and the right to a G.I. bill side by side.
He’s in his last year at Cal, and when I ask him what he wants to do next he takes a contemplative deep sigh loaded connotation and offers up,
“Probably take a break.”
I’d say he deserves it.
