Thanks for sharing that, Art. Dandelion Wine is one of my favorite books, too. Makes me think I should dig it out and re-read it. There's some of that same feeling in Something Wicked This Way Comes, although it's obviously a much darker book. I just picked up a DVD of the movie, which I really enjoyed. Probably only 2 stars in most reviews, but it had a nice feel for the Midwest.

Hope all's well with you..
