Kennedy and the moon tale from Uncle Cal
Personal letter-like snippet where Uncle Cal muses on Kennedy and the moon. He recalls his father’s view of a pure land and the moon’s supposed purpose, then riffs on whether the moon is cheese or Eden rock, mentioning Zeke’s preacher and Ed. A nostalgic, rambling musing rather than a news item.
