The Pea Coat

yesterday i was at mickey’s surplus again (3rd time in two weeks!), just browsing at the usual stuff: boots, socks, and camping gear. it always feels like i’m back at shank’s in joplin. the weather has warmed up, but i know we might have a few cold snaps coming, so i was looking at jackets. i found a pea coat that looked just like the one robert redford wore in three days of the condor. i bought it. i haven’t worn lapels this big since my mom made shirts for me in oklahoma!
