putterings 572 < 573 > 574 index
My father now travels by himself. He shields himself with his sensible windbreaker while puttering around Civil War battlefields, state capitol buidlings.
I see my father puttering around a track. Every day is a track he traces around a certain number of times until the day is done.
He is a collector, too, like Henry, scavenging in the world for objects to protect him.
