Memoir-travelogue in Zephine Humphrey's delightful prose. She managed to describe her community of neighbors, their meandering toward an auto travel decision rationalizing the forthcoming Vermont winter, a reliable Chevy, and the restlessness the years spent in the Great Depression. Artists in words and pictures, their departure was decided, she wrote, as much by village rumors and questions than by precise plan. She and Christopher would return, but first, they would follow Venus toward the western horizon. In San Diego, they headed eastward and home. This is their memoir.
