How To Rake Leaves.

I have a friend in California who is a painter, named Harry Blitzstein.
I used to go by his studio and listen to his cocker spaniel howl,  and have tea and talk about art and music and life.

I learned many things from my times with Harry, but one of the coolest things I learned from him was THE ART OF DOING.   This came about while discussing a book about raking leaves.

To be honest, the details are a little dusty, I can't remember if it was someone else's book he was talking about, or a book he made, but it was, in theory, a very stately, fancy book, called
How To Rake Leaves

Inside, it said:



Chapter 1:


Rake The Leaves.




The rest of the book was blank.
