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.

Autumn in New England...

One of the reasons I came north a bit early this year was to try and catch some fall colors.  Normally, I head up just after Muertos, but with it being so subdued once again this year, here I am. 
And well, I guess I'm too early.  The colors are very muted and the leaves are still more green than gold or red.  And they will soon be on the ground as it was -2 C. this morning and the first good frost normally does a number on them.  Did I say they were a bit muted?  Well, not all of them.
And with daylight savings ended, it starts getting dark at 4 PM, which makes the leaf peeping time much shorter. 4 PM is just too early... to go to bed.
Still, the place is beautiful.  I'll enjoy it while I can.
