Miles Over Midsummer Commons
The late Miles Davis is one my favorite jazz artists. To hear his trumpet, especially his solos, is to move deeply within one's soul. In fact, he is also one of the great innovators in musical history. Here's a semi-autobiographical, but fictional exchange of letters written while serving in the U.S. Army about Miles, English friends and old loves.

Slaying the Dragon at Deal's Gap
On a typical warm-weather weekend, hundreds of motorcycle riders converge on Deal’s Gap in the Smokey Mountains to test their mettle on a twisting, turning, undulating, isolated hunk of road they call the Dragon. Within 11 miles they are challenged by 318 tight turns linked by short straight-aways and abrupt elevation changes. Since the early 1990s, when word started spreading about this great ride in the Smokies, the Dragon has gained the trappings of a motorcyclists’ Mecca. Many come to slay the Dragon, and most are victorious. But sometimes the Dragon wins.
