Hotel Quite Acceptable, Seattle.
Rising at 05.55.
On this day in 1985 our Father flew from this world with our Mother holding him. Returning the day before from the first two Guitar Craft courses, back to back, at Claymont Court, I spent the evening watching the RF documentary New York – Wimborne with my Parents. I felt it was the first time that my Father actually saw his son.

The Dahlia is participating in Seattle Restaurant Week and served ace meals. Conventionally, we acknowledge our Parents and how happy they would be that the Fripp Kids continue to be close and having fun together. On this day, there is additional resonance.
