OK, Jack - two other people gave it 4 stars, but no review. You deserve a review.
You don’t have to live on Camano Island (look it up) to enjoy these tales of the “South End”, but if you do, there’s an extra fillip in trying to identify TwoToke Tom, Lottie Johnson and the folks at Windy Rear Realty. All in good fun, Skeeter Daddle skewers every sacred cow he can find; and there are plenty of sacred cows browsing the old-growth nettle forests of Cannabis Island. I chuckled, giggled and (maybe once) snort-spitted my blackberry-leaf tea. Check it out from the library if you must, but if you can, buy a copy, read it, and pass it on to help one of the South End’s permanently starving artists.
(Seriously folks, the author is a local good guy who gives a lot back to his community.)
