It stayed with me for years.<br /><br />Then years later, still 6'2", but no longer anywhere close to 23, I got to live it: A friend and I had escaped to the tropics, and when we returned, and I went to retrieve my car from the snowy Bangor parking lot, it turned out that my fellow traveller had cracked a window slightly, hadn't rolled it back up, and a fine drifting snow had blown in and coated every surface with a thin sparkly coat. if the van had only had a couple of chandeliers, we could have replayed the whole scene.<br /><br />Gorgeous postThe Down East Dilettantehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13950254669198151850noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907402354452907168.post-39153741469779069372010-12-28T00:06:54.586-05:002010-12-28T00:06:54.586-05:00Yes, I think I must have seen a documentary that d...Yes, I think I must have seen a documentary that discussed the creation of the sets.
