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.

We Love Field Trips!

It must have been class outing day, because the zocalo was filled with happy kids.  There is a book fair happening, but they did not seem altogether interested in it.  However, hula hoops were quite popular.  This boy had some serious technique.
And this is the look of a boy trapped inside a hoop with three girls.
 
Escaping the heat, this class sat on the steps of the cathedral eating lunch.
 Even though I was a long way away, I managed to get these two eying me, while the boy did what boys do.
