The best reality we could hope for is the moment in which we now live.
(Travel Tip: Arcola, Illinois. I know, this sounds lame, but it is less lame than you think. Downtown Arcola is home to the world’s only Hippie Memorial, an artwork some sixty-two feet long. But there's more because a few miles away is Rockome Gardens, the Amish Amusement Park, known for its Haunted Barn and buildings made from empty bottles of caffeine-free 7-Up and Fresca. Unfortunately, the tree house has been torn down. But there is performing chickens and a horse-powered buzz saw. Arcola is about two hours south of Chicago.)
