Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott: Sealed With a Kiss

I was reminiscing about the 60s recently, about how much fun it was in the summertime when school was finally out and how much fun it was to ride my bicycle through the orange-tree-lined road down to Corona del Mar to splash around in the ocean and swim out to a buoy....
Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott: Woodstock

Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott: Woodstock

Dagnabit (‘scuse me fer cussin’, Mom), I missed the Woodstock Music and Art Festival again. First time was Aug. 15-18, 1969, 56 years ago, on Max Yasgur’s dairy farm in Bethel, N.Y. Seems I missed it again on Aug. 16, when Green Valley Lake again celebrated its annual...

Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott — Starman

Well, we made it through Jamboree Days and the Fourth of July fireworks extravaganza without burning down the mountain. (Actually, it was the fifth of July fireworks extravaganza.) The parade and all the festivities were fun, as was the picnic in the San Moritz Meadow...

Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott — The Long and Winding Road

Mountain Musings with Uncle Mott — The Long and Winding Road

Hello, it’s me – Sorry I missed you guys last week, it’s all my fault and I’m sorry if I ruffled your tailfeathers, but I’m back in circulation now. Hello, it’s me, I’ve thought about us for a long, long time. Maybe I think too much, but something’s wrong. There’s...
