"That sure is a purty cabin...”
Kerouac responds to White's preliminary drawing for his “purty” mountain cabin with one word – a decisive “fine” – after offering a few more comments on design and needs (“running water and plumbing is a good idea,” “cast iron stove instead of wasteful fireplace”). The hideaway house in Florida was mostly built, “so our Irving Kerouac Retreat be next on agenda when all’s well, and all will be well.” But the Florida house turned out to be Jack’s last stopover.
