The here and now... and what and why

Complacency is a trap. At least that’s what I was thinking when I up and left the comfort of a Yankee prep school gig, where I taught music, amongst other things, for 28 years. There was also that life long career as a composer, musician and artist.

First, it was a year in St. Thomas, USVI, working as a reporter and shooting photography and then, a year in San Agustin Etla, Oaxaca, Mexico.
Time passed.
More time passed and a year back in the Athens of America followed by a hasty return to Oaxaca where it is all happening.
A couple of years in San Sebastian Etla and now, just down the road in San Pablo Etla. Life is good.

You can find my music on Jango (World & latin - Worldbeat) and at iTunes and most online stores.
¡Soy consciente de todas las tradiciones del Internet!

The beginning/end of the cycle

It seems as if the dry season has arrived right on schedule. The nights are cold and clear. Living in an adobe house, once again, shows its advantages, cool when its hot, warm when its cold. Looking out across this corn field just outside of Teotitlan del Valle and to the mountains brought back many memories. The corn fields in my life. One season ends, another begins.Beautiful use of corn in this altar at Jacobo and Maria Anegeles' place in San Martin Tilcajete.
