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.

Purple - Jacarandas

It's that time of year.  The jacarandas are out, many in full bloom.  Every now and then you walk under one and it is like you are in a purple snow flurry, the ground painted a wonderful Alice in Wonderland color.
We are about four months into the dry season and uh..... things are dry.... really dry.  So it always sort of a miracle to see the explosion of color. 
Still at least a couple more months before the rains come (ojala!) but these trees give a burst of hope of things to come.
 The Artist Formerly Known As would love it.
