In this pic, we picked Billy up from MSP for his reading at St John's University.

We had 90 + minutes of windshield time cruising up 94 with Billy stories.

He's a Jazz fan so we waxed from Jacky Terasson to Monk.

Jeff and Billy went on rhetoric tangents I couldn't keep up with.

A highlight of my life. Billy is coming back - Details here
