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.

Arbol de Cerebro? .... Ah, yes, Braintree

It's a small world isn't it?  This one goes out to all my New England folks.  Here's Domingo with his wife, Angela and his daughter, Denise.  Domingo plays a very good game of pool and above all, is a always a warm and gracious gentleman.  I get to shoot a little pool with him every now and then.  And today he was wearing a shirt from Braintree, Mass, a town just south of Boston...... not that he had any idea of where or what it was, but smiled when I told him.  Braintree?  You know, arbol de cerebro.... I guess you kinda hadda be there.  Today, he won more than I did... but there's always next time.
