Once upon a time . . . The reclusive elusive enigmatic and inspired Buck Weedleman visited a pearl of a city adjacent to a free port on the Pecatonica River and surprised three researchers having a drink at the Yellow Creek Inn. Our trip begins there. Weedleman while considered delusional by some is perhaps strangely enlightened in his lost reality like a hero in a fairytale blissfully unaware that he exists within the fairytale. I dont know. I can only report what he said in response to a few questions I posed. I found Weedlemans demeanor to be kind yet caustic authentic yet obstinate genuine yet hidden from perception heroic yet villainous or perhaps just captivating. Buck Weedlemans reality is either that of a true visionary or a deluded parody; Reality or delusion - I guess thats for you to decide.
