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.

Paul Grogan at 75 - Mr.Boston

I flew up from Oaxaca to attend the 75th birthday celebration of high school classmate, Paul Grogan.  Paul is, to a great part, responsible for Boston being the city it is today.  He worked at the highest levels of government for many years and then headed the Boston Foundation and all of its philanthropic works. It was a fine affair with lots of big wigs there and family and friends.  So happy to join in the celebration and so proud of the guy.  Home town boy makes it big and changes the world.
