This is a story of the coming of age of a young man, a story of hope, a story that is meant to amuse, to move, at best , to enlighten. It's about a young man who represents us all as we seek to find ourselves in life. He graduates from college yet declares himself a conscientious objector against the Vietnam War and serves his time. He experiences the loss of his father and other loved ones. He also experiences good and wonderful times in his travels. While he can cry for all the pain that he nor the rain can never cure, he still finds a way to remain hopeful. He can still find something to dream about while he takes out the trash.
