Leo's Ties

The daughter of Leo Connellan, our poet friend who passed away, gave Chris King a good deal on 10 of the poet's neckties to give to musicians who worked on the poetry score to Leo's hitchhiking epic, Crossing America. The trustees of Leo's ties are responsible for maintaining their tie with diginity and honor, reading Leo's poetry any day they wear a Leo tie, and submitting a story to the Skuntry Museum about what they have done on days when they wore Leo's tie.

A Poet's Things - How we came to possess the Leo ties. A thunderstorm quashed the poet's widow's yard sale, and Dog made a bulk bid before they could go out on sale.

Dog's Day in a Leo Tie - He gets his yellow fever and meningitis shots for a trip to Africa, and looks at tapestries from the Vatican with Les Murray, Australia's greatest poet.

Heidi's Day in a Leo Tie - She does yoga; she becomes one with the tie.

Some keepers of the Leo ties:
