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!

Obama in Oaxaca!

No, not Barak, Malia.  Still, any Obama coming here is good news because, no doubt, she will return and tell her Mom, Dad and sister what am absolutely fantastic place this is. 
 from El Imparcial
Malia Ann Obama, hija del presidente de los Estados Unidos, Barack Obama, arribó desde el pasado viernes a la ciudad de Oaxaca para realizar un viaje privado.
Trascendió que la hija del mandatario estadunidense llegó a la Verde Antequera con un grupo de 12 jóvenes de origen estadounidense que descendieron de un avión comercial procedente de Houston, Texas.
Ayer fue capta en la terraza de un conocido hotel ubicado en la calle de García Vigil, donde ella, junto con sus acompañantes, se asomaron en el momento que pasaba una calenda.
De forma extraoficial se dijo que Malia Ann Obama visitó ayer Mitla para conocer la cultura oaxaqueña.
 And if the Obamas think this is a good and safe place for their kids to visit, guess what?  It is!
