I stopped in Marietta OH to get Bob Wark's take on what I'm dragging along in the trailer. Bob knows a wee bit about it and the story behind it and If it ever stops raining I'll open the trailer and show you what I'm up to.

More Toward Realism than Fantasy
I've always been drawn more toward realism than fantasy, because it seems to me that realism is endlessly interesting and finally indeterminable. Realism is a species of fantasy that's much more integrated and hard-core than fantasy itself, but if you are ready to come to grips with the inevitable slipperiness of most available facts, you come to recognize that realism is not a direct approach to the truth so much as it is the most concentrated form of fantasy.
