McPhee's calling card

A bucket used by the house to hold towels used to clean was the deposit site for a calling card left by the boyfriend of a tenant that left without notice. He was angry that we had left his abandoned rusty bicycle frame next to the trash a week after they had left. He hid the frame behind the shed out of site and left his notice. I see the greeting as a threat of sort. Consensus in the building sees this as behavior befitting life in the big house.

This exact escapade happened towards the end of the book about Vincent's enlightening and I am excited about the future. I purposely did not show the turd in this picture as the action was truly too graphic.

The Kee Vos-Stricker parallel to Meredith Melling Burke

Kee Vos was Vincent van Gogh's 1st cousin on his mothers side, according to the book "Van Gogh's Women." She was employed by a publishing house owned by Vincents cousins and worked as a Fashion Editor, married and with a child.
 I need not say more.
 It should be said my mother's grandfather's first cousin was Conde Nast, they were best of friends and both worked in the same industry. This entire blog consists of parallels to that time in Vincents life. I stipulate Kee Vos may have played a larger role in Vincents life than books off the shelf of the library or book store would lead us to believe. It can also be said 8 to10 years of Vincent's letters have been withheld and for a good reason and that being so the next person could go through it unimpeded.
