The Avatar, XXXI.
The Milky Way is described as:
"...the galactic river..." (p. 265)
I do not know whether I have noted this particular use of this phrase before. For others, see:
Meanwhile, Back On Earth, Time Passes
This chapter presents yet another item, in this case Caitlin's head, seen against the Milky Way but we have noticed this one before. See:
Caitlin's newly composed song invokes the wind as inspiring wanderlust:
"A bugle wind is blowing
"It's time that I be going..." (p. 268)
I cannot imagine that song being sung though but maybe someone has done it at a Con?
Things go as well as they might but not perfectly for the crew after a drunken party and they prepare for the next jump.

Kaor, Paul!
Anderson's poem "Mary O'Meara" did become a filk song popular among some SF fans at one time--and maybe it still is.
Ad astra! Sean
