Good story
This was an entertaining and thought-provoking slice-of-life story. The writing was sophisticated and amusing, though a little too heavy on Thoreau quotes the kids quotes added more. I would like to have seen more acting, rather than straightforward story-telling--would, in fact, love to see it as an actual PLAY, with six characters, including the wife and kids, or maybe even seven, including the ghost of Thoreau! Much potential!
