"Vaquero Riding The Whirlwind"
Kathy and I drove into the Beast today to have lunch with the Hawkins at their favorite Mexican joint, Via Delosantos in Sunnyslope. Lots of talk about old Phoenix and the Kemper Marley story. Mike told me he has an ASU annual with a photo of John Harvey Adamson with the caption "killer." Prophetic, indeed.
Life Lesson #1941
For everything you and I think is important to know, there is another benefit from not knowing. Case in point:
"I don't know anything about history, and I can tell because every history movie I watch, I watch on the edge of my seat. What is gonna happen? I watched Pearl Harbor. I was as surprised as they were."
—Nate Bargatze
Found an original photo of the picture titled “While The Cariage Waits” interested? Paul w dmsv10@gmail.com
ReplyDeletethe idea that not knowing history can make it more suspenseful is an interesting perspective. it reminds me of watching historical films without prior context. the personal diary style gives a raw look into the thoughts behind running a magazine. the mention of old phoenix and local stories adds a grounded, authentic feel to the entry.
