Thanks so much! I’ve had lots of opportunity for this kind of reflection this past year, and I’m glad to have discovered this venue to connect with people with similar interests.
Inquiring minds want to know — Dylan’s looking for his love in Honolul-a ; did he pick this mispronunciation because he started with Ashtabula, or did he want Honolulu but couldn’t find a location that rhymed?
Very cool.
Strange moments, when you become the archeologist of your own life. Really enjoyed this.

I asked my dad, and he said he thinks it was written about a woman who'd lived in Ashtabula, so maybe he started with that city.
