until recently, i did not exactly associate ernest hemingway with peace. i tended to associate him with images of bullfights, hunting trips, his ultimate end, although there were those photographs of him as a young man on a hospital bed in france.

War is no longer made by simply analysed economic forces if it ever was. War is made or planned now by individual men, demagogues and dictators who play on the patriotism of their people to mislead them into a belief in the great fallacy of war when all their vaunted reforms have failed to satisfy the people they misrule. And we in America should see that no man is ever given, no matter how gradually or how noble and excellent the man, the power to put this country into a war which is now being prepared and brought closer each day with all the premeditation of a long planned murder. For when you give power to an executive you do not know who will be filling that position when the time of crisis comes.
They wrote in the old days that it is sweet and fitting to die for one's country. But in modern war there is nothing sweet nor fitting in your dying. You will die like a dog for no good reason.
.....
... or you will burn, choke and vomit, or be blown to hell a dozen ways without sweetness or fittingness; but none of this means anything. No catalogue of horrors ever kept men from war. Before the war you always think that it's not you that dies. But you will die, brother, if you go to it long enough.
--- Ernest Hemingway Notes on the Next War: A Serious Topical Letter (Esquire, September 1935) from By-Line: Ernest Hemingway: Selected Articles and Dispatches of Four Decades, edited by William White
Famed novelist Ernest Hemingway lived in this house from 1931 to 1939, producing some of his best work here. After 1939, he moved to Havana, Cuba, occasionally visiting the home until his death by suicide in 1961. Constructed in 1851 by a wealthy ship salvage tycoon, the sturdy home has weathered many hurricanes.
My favourite shot from my trip last week to the Danube Delta region in SE Romania.
There's something very Hemingway about the boatman...
Apparently, Ernest Hemingway used to hang out here; so we had to go in. :-)

Happy Furry Friday!
I apologize to all the dog lovers, but for all my cat loving friends here are a few more shots of some of the 6-toed cats we saw at Hemingway Home and Museum.
We found this cat doing what cats too most of the day... sleeping. It looked so cute as it was snoozing on the wrought iron table, but I really wanted to get it with its eyes open. So I waited and waited and waited... talked to it... then for a split second, it opened its eyes... click... and it went back to sleep.
The author Ernest Hemingway died in Ketchum, Idaho in 1961 and is buried at the cemetery here. We were there a few weeks after Day of the Dead, and many of those decorations were still there including candles, a book of his short stories, marigolds, coins, and a sugar skull.

"If you are lucky enough to have lived in Paris as a young man, then wherever you go for the rest of your life it stays with you, for Paris is a moveable feast." - Ernest Hemingway
My girlfriend loves, adores, and worships everything to do with Paris. The style, the fashion, everything. This portrait shows that she'd fit in there, I think. She was, however, slightly disappointed with this one because there is, allegedly, dry shampoo visible on the back of her blouse.
Taken in North Vancouver, British Colombia.
Built under his wife's direction while he was out of the country, he returned to find it built and having cost exorbitantly more than the original price. Upon seeing the bill of $20,000, he reached into his pocket and handed his wife a penny, saying "Well, you might as well have my last cent." She pressed the coin into the wet concrete and it remains there to this day. Seen at his home in Key West, FL. July 2007.
