One Night Stand on Der Zauberberg

[Knot]

Hi TqB

so this was half way to Cananda

In which case, perhaps start

Halfway, in the Uncompaghre wilderness

we met a band of travellers ... ?

this was the outstanding event/memory for me of the whole 2 week trip

Just a thought, but could the story work by itself, independent of the road trip?

we gave them $10 gas money for the bag of peyote.

Well, that's got to be in there.

Would this be considered cheap or expensive (for the time)?

Best, Knot

PS each of us (S3) reads like there were more than just N and James.
