The football-helmet-hairstyle of Patty Duke |

The drat-those-orcs-hairstyle of her son Sean Astin shown here with similarly coiffed young Frodo |
Last night was great fun and Frank Wilczek is now a green frog. We went to bed happily smiling at 1 a.m.–now it’s 5 and we are taking last showers before packing up for the north.
I have to decide what to do with my Patty-Duke helmet-hair. Don’t blame my elegant young hairdresser Morgan Johansson for creating this time-honored style twice during our stay–I talked him into it, both times. Without lots of smoothing and fluffing and serious hairspray, my hair likes to curl itself up into tiny dreadlocks
So tempted as I am to wash it this morning, I’d much rather look like Sean Astin’s mom than like third-reel Frodo or Sam. And I’ll regret my helmet hair if I fall off that dogsled!
