“Writing from a small town in Nicaragua on the way to Lake Atitlan, thoughts of my country return. I am not sure if I will return, but when the roads are out between Guatemala City and Atitlan, it leaves time for reflection. I was an American once, an Italian for a time. I was a Catholic once, an Athiest for a time and let’s not leave out being a Jew and a Christian , sometimes all at the same time. I was a journalist once, a juris doctor of law and let’s not forget race horse trainer and political insider at a young age in Chicago’s Democratic machine.  Now I am neutral like Switzerland, wondering how I got on this bus going to Guatemala with a camera and guitar in hand. I also wonder how America got to be a tin horn third world country practically overnight. Some might argue that last statement but here are some thoughts about America’s beginnings while I wait for the roads to clear.”
