One of the best farewell greeting cards I ever received was this one by cartoonist Kevin Pope in the early 1990′s.
I actually did quit my job (though I never did wear live [or dead] animals on my head). Griz and I took off on one of our periodic sailing-into-the-wilderness adventures aboard S/V WaterBrother. By the time we returned, Griz had a new nickname and appeared to be wearing animals on his head.
And here we are “gone native” after a few months – a status-report postcard we sent to friends from Vancouver Island’s west coast.
