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!

Back to normal


The planton is gone, but not forgotten.  The streets have been cleaned, the trash removed, the zocalo washed down, the tents gone, as are the traveling vendors, all history.  The story from El Imparcial.
Here is Alcala this morning.

This area by the cathedral was filled with tents just yesterday.

Today, nada.

People enjoying the serenity of the zocalo.

Watching nothing go by.

Just the normal vendors, who I am sure were quite happy to be alone again selling their wares.

Good to see recognizable faces.

Can never pass up a shot of a bride.

Back to normal..... ahhh.
