Driving north through the Alps toward the St. Gotthard tunnel, Swiss-German oldies station plays Beatles "Come Together." Suddenly, between the mountains, a rainbow, pale in the photo but surprising and vivid on the road. An invitation...to what?
Coming out of the tunnel, gray skies and a new landscape: flocks of woolly sheep that keep the steep Alpine slopes trimmed to riding-mower perfection. And on a new station, a Mozart violin concerto. Couldn't make this up.
