--- Quote from: pastorfred on August 26, 2006, 12:41:10 pm ---When I first learned about Ellery's plan to purchase a paso fino horse so that he could ride with Ennis, I thought, "Wow! Maybe that means he can visit Brokeback Mountain with Ennis." At the time I thought it would be a good thing, maybe even a very good thing.
After reading many comments at the end of chapter 83, especially the ones opposed to Ellery's going with Ennis to Brokeback Mountain, I now believe that it is vital, absolutely essential, for them to go there together.
I trust Louise and her muses to handle the situation exactly rightly. For me that's saying a lot, because it means I'm also trusting a large part of my own emotional well being to the unfolding of this story. To quote our excellent scudder, "As Ennis goes, so I go."

I'm with you, Fred. As Ennis and Fred go, so I go!
scudder:
For the love story of Ennis and Ellery to develop, mature, deepen and strenghten, the story of Ennis and Jack and the story of Ellery and Beagle have to be integrated into the present and ongoing story of Ennis and Ellery. And Louise is doing a bang up job of showing how that is done in the concrete here and now.

I have no trouble with E&E going up to BBM together. But once they do, they may not go back. The old BBM camp may bring back too many memories for Ennis. He may decide after this visit that future vacations be held elsewhere so he and Ellery can make new memories.
