I am admittedly not too familiar with Dylan or the Dead, I have however always enjoyed Dylan’s “don’t think twice”. It’s a simple song yet very beautiful both in melody and lyrics, although somewhat sad. Dylan’s raspy voice is a comfort all its own. I never dabbled with or was curious about LSD but I nonetheless appreciate the recounting of your experience and the vivid description of the flying dragons.

I really enjoyed the Netflix documentary on Bob Weir. A great window into his life and an era long since gone. Wonderful guy! Did you see it and if so, what did you think of it? https://youtu.be/G1bGnTvZ0mA

The Other One. My favorite book on the Dead (there's several good ones) is by their former manager and Jerry's partner in crime, Rock Scully: "Living With The Dead: Twenty Years on the Bus with Garcia and the Grateful Dead" (1995). This book is at once laugh out loud funny and tragically sad — in other words: the truth from a very credible authority. Aloha
