Quay Journeys

by Jennifer Pattison Rumford

Is it true that by the time a goldfish has swum to the end of the tank, that he’s forgotten where he came from, and his turn opens a whole new world in front of him? That would make a simple fish our most dauntless and constant sojourner.

Sometimes our journeys feel like the intrepid souls in this issue trying to reach the Rocket, crowded, hot, uncomfortable, and expending a lot of effort for not much distance covered. But other journeys see us cross galaxies in a heartbeat or a single line of a poem.

The authors of this issue are open to journeys, and open to taking us with them.

Pour a glass of lemonade with just enough bourbon, settle on the front porch, and join us for the best in armchair traveling.
