several other important friends in the bay area      here's Bonnie Swift, who made me

welcome at her home in Fairfax.    and here, with her late husbad, James Langbein,  and their kids


                                


ah -  the happy days of  new love - 19 71,   pictured here           


another friend, who we had in common, British journalist, Duncan Campbell  - as a young man 


     and as a grown up, circa 2005  


Duncan, in turn, introduced me to Isolde Hunter        a talented singer, who i didn't meet in person

until  much later.  Siri  Moeller introduced me to her lovely sister, Petie        we asked

a stranger to take this photo in New York's Central Park.   Petie took several other pics of me herself.


and and 

after 2 years in Marin Caouty i moveed to Los Angeles,  a big mistake, except for the good friends i made there.
