Dear Honorable Family Court and Good Reader: I’m driving way too fast and it’s a little after midnight, the beginning of Mother’s Day in the New York Empire State. The moon on my western horizon plays games with me and the silvery clouds that are moving in my same westerly direction. “Going West” here in northern Appalachia is the prevailing wind both physically and metaphysically. The American pilgrim traffic has been so thick here for the spiritual and financially desperate and their families for the last two hundred and thirty–four (234) years that this land is called the “Scorched earth.”
