Sad story about Redding, and I’m so very glad you’re not alone anymore. The song never strikes me as sad. To me, it’s the pleasure of being lazy and staring out at something beautiful, since sitting quietly and doing nothing is such a rare event in my life. Those moments are more memories of childhood - lying on the grass and watching the clouds roll by. Excuse the liberty of a virtual hug to you and yours.

Nice to have your reply. Different situations might cause differing views. I was unemployed and living out of my 68 Plymouth in Western Canada at the time of the song.

Nice to have a virtual hug -and a big hug back to your and yours.
