Let’s Fly
Howdy everyone. I am in Puerto Escondido, Oaxaca for a month. Check it on line. I highly recommend it; a tranquil place with a great vibe and far enough from the crowd. Just returned from sunset and a couple of beers at Playa Zicatela. The average waves were close to 4 meters and the monsters perhaps 6. The surfers dumping off the back were 20 feet in the air. Really amazing and hoping some of you make it here some day.
I am working on a six song EP called “ Whispers from Nowhere “ after my little line
The closest distance between two points is in a straight line
But when you follow whispers from nowhere you can take your time.
Like so many of these mutterings, it doesn’t mean much, but sounds like it does. I am too mired in the day-to-day dust paying for needs and promises to hope for that kind of freedom. But hey, I know what it feels like and the dream is still alive. The songs are:
1. Under the Tree
2. For the People
3. Standing in Front of You
4. B Movie
5. Ratman
6. Shame on You
I finished the writing in about a two week frenzy, but have been a bit of a dick in not getting the tracks laid down. Ah well.
I am attaching Let’s Fly. I have featured it, but never with an explanation. It is a remembrance of Winnipeg, Manitoba, the geographical centre of Canada just under Hudaon Bay. This brings long, cold winters with short northern daylight. It seemed that we sensed the encroachment of the dark time and were more open to finding an amiable companion to share that confinement. We paid more heed to visiting our brethren lest we all sink in to some personal gloom that mirrored the barrens outside. When the winter spell lifted, summer seemed such wondrous freedom. So I treasure being brown and warm in Mexico and wish you all your endless summer.
