“When the stone speaks, I listen”

"When the stone speaks,

I listen"

This is the guiding motto of sculptor, Charles L. Fields. When writing his memoir, Many Lands Many Hearts he employs the same inspiration and goes within himself to draw upon a lifetime of varied careers and travel experiences. Readers will be on a journey from banana boats to the wholesale lobster and chicken business and follow world wide travel adventures. It’s a full palette, so come and share this fascinating life.

The only fancy or pretty material goods these girls ever saw were in catalogues. When the Rose Marie emerged from the box,sighs and cries were heard through the night. The bathing suit proved totaly satisfactory but it would never be worn. It was immediately nailed up on the wall and looked upon like a religious icon or some great work of art. I wonder if on some barrio wall in Puerto Cortez this objet d'art still hangs. I have never had the opportunity to return.
