New York was cold

New York was Cold and I liked where I was living. There was music everywhere in Brooklyn and everything was full of potential. It was Spring and all the Brownstones in Park Slope had Magnolia blossoming.. but the main flowers in Bloom in the South were Azaelea, and Oleander.

Auckland, is ripe with Autumn. Some people have died. Some people have become pregnant, some people have married, all in three weeks. The sun is waning, and I'm happy to be home. Which doesn't mean I wasn't happy to be heading up the West Coast toward Portland either.

Just let you know, America is full of clever thoughtful people. I always suspected. Even in Texas! In amongst the Cacti there. Atlanta worries me a little, but I hope to return to Austin and Albuquerque, and Orange before TOO Long. I'd also like to go to Toolong, but that's might be a different kettle of fish.

So I'm still thinking about those big signs that said CRAWFISH!, along the Cajun coast, in bewtween the mansions in the sunshine. Cat fish. Alligators. All those displays of Law enforcement in New Orleans. Black cops waving us through. A row of eye white's in the dark. Arrow of Injuns. Boots. Navajo Casino tycoons. The Pentagon and Washington DC with all it's low flying Copter's. A Million trucks and then some Carrion.

My friend the Crow on the lip of the Grand Canyon. I'm so jealous, about flying. You gotta git those things in perspective though. The Watchdog at the Kara-ok- Corale Motel, who Watched me.

The Grand Canyon was very much like a large Natural Cavity in the Ground.

Yeah we drove up around the Natural Cavity. Went to see the big Cavernous hole. Gaping example of vast natural erosion. I guess we all sometimes feel that way.

Orange

Auckland is cold. and I have a lot to say. I'll just go and make a coffee. Welcome to the Genblog.
