The sights and sounds of
America - you get close to them,
I found out, after a 5,000-mile
round trip by bus to the Vermont
hills.
I hadn't been east for three
years and I guess I'd forgotten
what a big layout this land is.
Sixty hours one way and us
skinny gu~s are not too well
padded.
The sights and sounds - A
Pennsylvania town at two in the
morn'rag with the lonely streets
dstIq>led with the shadows of the
elm trees. The brooding hills
rise abruptly against the stars
and fog begins its silent drift
upward from the waters of a lake.
The air is damp and I never
did get adjusted to the humidity
after I got farther east.
East of the Mississippi and the
Joint is jumping. People every-
where - the sidewalks clogged, the
busses jammed, the streets a
madhouse of cars.
Construction is booming - com.
mercial buildings, houses, apart-
merits - they build them big and
high and all over.
The sights and sounds - New
York, where I lived for four
years, lovely in the evening dusk
with the soft green lights bathing
the spire of the Empire State
Building.
I rode the tarnpikes non-stop
from Chicago to New York, The
turnpLkes ride aloof~ for the
most part through the country-
side with hardly ever a city in
sight.
Running up through the New
Jersey fiatlands, you strike the
industrial con~plex around New
York, dive through the Holland
Tunnel and you're in the roar of
New York.
The New York smell Is lndes-
eri_hable but I've never forgotten
it. The air is humid with the
ocean in it along with exhaust
~nnes, the subway odor and
people.
The sights and sounds - Rolh:ng
northward on Interstate 91 in
Vermont, along the Connecticut
River, the forests are like a
Jungle. Vermont is great for
breathtaking views and every
and then, through the green
forests, I could seethe great
river.
I saw lots af rivers and streams
in the east- most of them a love.

abut the ballparks? Milwaukee's

lovely but there were no base

more humbled the Yanks.
The sights and sounds - Espec-
ially the sights. I had my first
glimpse of the mini-skirt in New
York. She had lovely legs. I
know now why they don't wear
belts with them - the belts would
cover the skirt.
The sights and sounds - The
old town where I grew up. It
really hasn't changed too much.
The lake is as lovely as ever and
the same mountains still watch
over it. The trees keep growing
and they appear to be almost
strangling the city.
But the people change. I knew
few of them there now. Now and
then a familiar face looms into
view and your mind peels off the
years and tries to recall the
name.
The sights and sounds - Cigar-
ettes cost 35 and 40 cents a ,pack
and a milkshake in Chicago cost
me 55 cents and you could have
put it in your eye and never
lmve known the difference.
A big country, a sprawli~tg one
and people in the various sec-
tions really should get out and
see how the other sections live.

stood on Cannon Mountain in
Franconla Notch with my brother
Ed and through the smoky haze,
the ~eaka of the W~ite Moun-
talus ran toward the horizon like
ocean waves.
My wife Donna met me in
Rapid City at night when I ar-
rived and I drove home. After
three days of heating the roar of
the bus, the silence was immense,
The sights and the sounds - We
erosed the state line into Wyo,
ruing and the air was clean and
dry and I could have seen for a
hundred miles if it hadn't been
dark.
I trod a little harder on the
gas pedal.
It was great to be home.
