Happy memorability …

… Bruce Charlton's Miscellany: Homes of famous writers - RW Emerson and CS Lewis - and the best reason for a pilgrimage to experience them. (Hat tip, Dave Lull.)



I made my pilgrimage to Emerson's home quite a few years ago. I know there are plenty of people who disparage the Sage of Concord, but I remain an admirer. Reading "Self-Reliance" one cold, clear day in February had a lasting effect on me, one for which I remain grateful.
