Everyday truly is another roadside attraction

Yesterdays encounter is a perfect example. The names of those involved have been changed to protect everyone's interests.
We had coffee with R who dropped by with an espresso maker and gifts. We received miso from Japan and maple syrup from Maple Vinny who is an X mob boss and a friend of R. We discussed religion, bikes, guitars, philosophy, art and the inner workings of the universe. R is a refugee from Hollywood and the chaos of southern California. He comes from a wealth built from the inventions of his Russian ancestors. At one point I was given a tour of his worldclass art collection which is said to be worth millions. R is a flamenco guitar virtuoso who learned the art in southern Spain while hanging out with a Greek revolutionary wanted by Interpol. I had the good fortune to hear a small piece on the guitar which was rather impressive............ There is much more to the tale, but as with all tales, not all can be told at once...........
The Montana skies are vast and the potentials even vaster..........
