It was good to see the City Lights and the Beat Museum in San Francisco.
The energy and attitude of Beat is alive and doing well! It changes the world!

That is one I shall definitely go to. I am keeping these pics so the Boys can download them for me, have no idea how to do that. These are great Opher.
I thought you might like them. It’ll give you a little taste.
Thank you Opher, very nice of you to do that , all exciting.
I took loads. It was part of our Australia trip. We stopped off on the way. A bit of nostalgia for the old folks.
Cheers, Ophy !
The Beat Museum is a ‘Howl’ of a time
You’ve made me want to go back again!

That would be great Matt!
I read On The Road earlier this year. I had read it once before, years ago. I enjoyed it more than ever the second time around.
For complicated reasons that I looked into but haven’t really understood, On The Road wasn’t published until 1957, six years after Kerouac wrote it.
Wikipedia offers a ton of info about all of this:

I reread it too a year ago. It still has that power. The writing has a flow to it. A very important book in lots of ways.

A great centre for all things Beat.
I visited the Beat Museum a few years ago. Cool place! We also took our own little stroll to find the house where Jack lived, which was a great experience.
I wish I’d done that! I’d have loved to have seen where he lived.
We trekked up and down a lot of San Fan hills to get there, but it was totally worth it, jut to know the place and feel the vibe 🙂
I can imagine. You get a feel of the place by being there! I would have loved that!
