places where you can feel especially close to history:

• crowded places where classical music is playing softly in the background
  
• used bookstores where the sun is shining through the window and you can see the dust floating in its light
  
• moonlit car rides down country roads with horses grazing nearby
• dark rooms at 3 am when everything is silent except for the wind outside
• run-down buildings at universities with only a few people in them
• anywhere where you can feel the breeze blow gently past you, the tender kiss of ghosts from long ago
