Well, the week has zipped by and I had a nice red to celebrate our last night on the beach.
Of course, some guys weren't all that interested in the sunset.
One of the many things I love about the beach is the solitude and contemplation while listening to the crashing waves. It's very primordal and invariably leads to flights of inspiration. This morning as I stared at the sets rolling in, a certain captivo came into view.
I still see him as the next American hero. Flawed, mixed and deadly. The perfect reflection of our times. Or, as his friend, the chief of the Apache Scouts put it:
"Mickey Free is half Mexican, half Irish and all son-of-a-bitch."
