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.
¡Soy consciente de todas las tradiciones del Internet!

Street Art - Waltham style....

I do most of my shopping in nearby Waltham, which used to be the heart of watchmaking years ago with large mills along the Charles. 
Now, it is one of most ethnically diverse cities in the area.  Hence, it is a real restaurant mecca.  Thai, Indian, Guatemalan, Japaneses, Spanish, French, BBQ and good Mexican, too, it's all right there.
And so it goes in the large supermarket and the many small markets on the main drag, Moody Street.  "If you want it, you can get it." 
Just seeing this timely and political street art reminded me of Oaxaca, where it is so prevalent.
